About this record
The original 1970 US pressing of Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival is distinguished by its RCA Records Pressing Plant, Hollywood origin and the stamped runouts F-2800 and F-2801, including variants with an H suffix. This pressing features deep grooves and lists Figure as the publisher for track A2, a detail that changes in later repressings.
With 66 copies currently for sale and a want list of 3783 collectors, demand remains strong for this classic rock release.
What drives its value
Price variation for this US Fantasy 8402 pressing ranges widely from a Mint copy valued at 327.75 USD down to a Poor copy at 17.25 USD, highlighting the premium placed on condition. The market snapshot shows 66 copies available starting at a low price of 2.58 USD, making it accessible yet competitive.
Its status as the original Hollywood pressing, compared to later US repressings from 1974 and European issues from 2008, positions it as a sought-after version that commands higher prices among collectors focused on authenticity and pressing details.
How to appraise this pressing
Identification of this pressing hinges on the catalogue number 8402 on the Fantasy label and the RCA Records Pressing Plant, Hollywood origin. The presence of the runout matrix stamps F-2800 and F-2801, sometimes with an H, confirms the original 1970 pressing.
Labels feature publishers including Jondura, Figure, Peer Int'l, Hi Lo, Presley, and Jobete, with Figure specifically credited on track A2. Grading should consider the deep groove quality and the clarity of the stamped matrix, as these affect value significantly from Mint (327.75 USD) to VG (155.25 USD).
