About this record

Pressed at RCA Records Pressing Plant, Hollywood in 1970, this US Camden pressing carries matrix runouts ZCRM-5799 and ZCRM-5800 with the -7S H suffix, marking it as a later Hollywood strike rather than an earlier variant. The price gap between Mint (109.25 USD) and VG (51.75 USD) reflects how heavily condition sorting dominates the secondary market for this title, with 78 copies currently listed across platforms.

What drives its value

This 1970 RCA Camden CAL-2428 mono pressing commands 109.25 USD in Mint condition, dropping to 97.75 USD at NM, 74.75 USD at VG+, and 51.75 USD at VG—a steep decline that mirrors the wear patterns typical of holiday records played seasonally over decades. The lowest asking price sits at 1.46 USD, reflecting heavily played or damaged stock.

Among 78 active listings, the spread signals that only pristine or near-mint copies attract serious collector premiums; anything below VG+ trades at a fraction of the Mint value. The 1970 US pressing outsells its 1975 UK Camden reissue (CDS 1155) and the Canadian Pickwick variant (CAS-2428), both of which command lower floors.

Community ownership stands at 9480 have against 474 want, indicating this is a common title but one where condition-driven rarity still matters.

How to appraise this pressing

Confirm this pressing by the RCA Camden label, catalogue number CAL-2428, and the mono designation on the sleeve. The dead-wax matrix runouts ZCRM-5799 (side one) and ZCRM-5800 (side two) with the -7S H suffix verify the Hollywood plant pressing.

Grade by examining all 10 tracks for surface noise, groove wear, and label condition; a Mint copy shows no play wear, while VG copies exhibit light scratches and faint surface noise during quiet passages. The absence of a barcode confirms the 1970 vintage.

Compare the label stock and pressing weight to rule out the later 1975 UK or Canadian variants, which carry different catalogue numbers and label designs.
