About this record
The runout matrix stamped with TML and a faint P identifies this as a Pitman pressing of Aerosmith's 1975 debut, the original US Columbia release on catalogue PC 33479. Unlike later reissues, this pressing carries no lacquer-cutter etching and lacks the Customatrix stamp, marking it as a first-generation pressing mastered at The Mastering Lab in Los Angeles and pressed at Columbia Records' Pitman plant.
Demand outpaces supply: 2732 collectors want this title against 24174 who own a copy, yet only 64 are listed for sale across the market.
What drives its value
The 1975 US Pitman pressing commands a steep condition curve. A Mint copy reaches 83.31 USD, while Near Mint drops to 74.54 USD—a gap that reflects how original pressings from this era rarely survive handling unscathed.
VG+ copies stabilize at 57 USD, VG at 39.46 USD, and the market floor sits at 3.44 USD for heavily played stock. The 64 active listings suggest scarcity relative to the 24174 collectors who own one, yet the want-to-have ratio of 2732 to 24174 indicates this is a foundational title rather than a chase pressing.
The 1975 US original commands premium over the 2016 European reissue because first pressings from the Pitman plant—identifiable by the TML runout and faint P stamp—are the audiophile reference and retain stronger collector value than later repressings.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number PC 33479 on the label spine and front cover. Examine the dead wax on both sides: Side A should read AL 33479 or PAL 33479, and Side B should read BL 33479 or PBL 33479.
The distinguishing marker is the presence of TML in the runout (indicating The Mastering Lab mastering) paired with a faint stamped P, which denotes the Pitman pressing plant. The rear jacket must display AEROSMITH NEWSLETTER rather than AEROSMITH FAN CLUB.
The label should bear the Ⓟ 1975 CBS Inc. copyright mark. Critically, this pressing lacks any lacquer-cutter etching (such as AZ for Allen Zentz) and shows no Customatrix o stamp—both absences confirm the pressing variant.
Grade by examining groove wear, surface noise under magnification, and jacket condition separately; the Pitman pressings are known for variable pressing quality, so two copies graded identically may sound different due to vinyl composition variance between batches.

Release notes
Recorded & mixed at: The Record Plant, New York. Mastered at: The Mastering Lab, Los Angeles.
Track A5 - "Big Ten Inch Record" was composed by Fred Weismantel in 1952 and was originally recorded by Bullmoose Jackson.
This entry is for pressings with these distinguishing features: • Runouts include “TML" for . • Pitman pressing denoted by an often faint "P" stamped in the runouts. • No etching identifying who the lacquer was cut by, such as “AZ" (Allen Zentz). • No "o" stamp for Customatrix. • The rear of the LP jacket has "AEROSMITH NEWSLETTER" and not "AERSOSMITH FAN CLUB". • Ⓟ 1975 CBS Inc. on labels • Runouts etched except stamped indicia for The Mastering Lab and Pitman.
Before adding any variants, be sure to compare to other Pitman pressings and recognize that "PAL" and "PBL" on Columbia releases indicate red-label pop and jazz records and not necessarily a Pitman pressing.

Frequently asked
How do I tell a Pitman pressing from other 1975 US Columbia pressings of this album?
Look in the dead wax for the TML marking (The Mastering Lab) combined with a faint stamped P. The P is often light and requires good lighting to spot. Pitman pressings also lack lacquer-cutter etchings like AZ and do not carry the Customatrix o stamp. Compare your runout against the documented matrix strings: PAL 33479•1C L.S.J.D TML-S P or PBL 33479•1D L.S.J.D. TML-S P are Pitman variants. The rear jacket should read AEROSMITH NEWSLETTER.
What is a VG+ copy of this pressing worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 57 USD. This estimate reflects the market as recorded in the guide; actual sales vary by seller and venue. VG+ means minimal surface noise, light groove wear, and a clean jacket with no seam splits or major creasing.
Is there a big price jump between Mint and Near Mint?
Yes. A Mint copy is priced at 83.31 USD while Near Mint is 74.54 USD. The gap widens further at lower grades: VG+ sits at 57 USD and VG at 39.46 USD. On first pressings from the mid-1970s, condition is the primary value driver because vinyl formulation and pressing consistency varied batch to batch, making truly clean copies scarcer than the raw have/want numbers suggest.
Why is the 1975 US pressing more valuable than the 2016 European reissue?
The 1975 original was pressed at Pitman during the album's initial run and carries the sonic and collector prestige of a first pressing. The 2016 European reissue (catalogue 88985344301) is a modern remaster and repress, made decades later with different mastering and vinyl stock. Collectors prioritize originals for their historical authenticity and because early Pitman pressings, despite variable quality, are the reference standard for this title's sound.
I found a copy listed for 3.44 USD. Is it a bargain or damaged?
The lowest price of 3.44 USD represents the floor of the current market—typically a heavily played Poor or Fair grade copy. At that price point, expect significant surface noise, groove damage, and possible warping or jacket deterioration. The price guide shows Poor at 4.38 USD and Fair at 8.77 USD, so a 3.44 USD listing suggests a copy below Fair condition or a clearance sale. Inspect photos carefully for visible damage before committing.
