About this record
The UK Reprise pressing of Then Play On carries stamped runouts RSLP 9000A1-♢H and RSLP 9000B1-♢H, distinguishing it from later etchings and marking manufacture by either Tranco Limited or Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Demand significantly outpaces supply: 1646 collectors want this pressing against 2513 who own one, yet only 31 copies are listed for sale across the market. The price spread between a Mint copy at 224.16 USD and a Good copy at 35.39 USD reflects how heavily condition drives value on this 1969 release.
What drives its value
This UK original commands a steep condition premium. A Mint copy trades at 224.16 USD, while a Near Mint sits at 200.57 USD—a narrow gap that widens dramatically as condition drops: VG+ reaches 153.38 USD, VG falls to 106.18 USD, and Good+ bottoms at 58.99 USD.
The current lowest asking price of 30.58 USD across 31 active listings suggests distressed stock or significant wear. The want-to-have ratio of 1646 to 2513 indicates steady collector interest without acute scarcity, but the tri-coloured Reprise steamboat label and matte gatefold sleeve—hallmarks of the original 1969 UK release—command premiums over reissues.
Pressing plant attribution (Tranco Limited or Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd.) does not yet drive separate pricing, but stamped runouts are rarer than etched variants.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Reprise catalogue number RSLP 9000 on the spine and label. The dead-wax runouts must read RSLP 9000A1-♢H (side A) and RSLP 9000B1-♢H (side B) in stamped form; any etched runout indicates a later pressing.
The tri-coloured Reprise steamboat label and matte gatefold sleeve are original-issue markers; glossy sleeves and later label designs signal reissues. Tranco Limited or Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. pressings are both legitimate 1969 UK originals.
Grade by examining the playing surface under light: Mint means unplayed, NM shows minimal signs of play, VG+ permits light surface marks audible only between tracks, VG allows light scratches and faint background noise during quiet passages, and Good+ exhibits moderate wear with occasional audible pops. The absence of a barcode confirms original 1969 manufacture.

Frequently asked
What is the price range for this pressing in different conditions?
A Mint copy is valued at 224.16 USD, dropping to 200.57 USD in Near Mint. VG+ copies reach 153.38 USD, VG copies 106.18 USD, Good+ 58.99 USD, and Good 35.39 USD. These are price-guide estimates; actual market sales vary. The lowest current asking price is 30.58 USD, typically indicating heavy wear or damage.
How do I identify the correct pressing plant?
Examine the dead-wax runout on each side of the record. This UK original was pressed by either Tranco Limited or Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd., both legitimate 1969 manufacturers. The runouts must be stamped (not etched) and read RSLP 9000A1-♢H and RSLP 9000B1-♢H. Later reissues use different runout formats or etching methods.
What makes this pressing different from reissues?
The original 1969 UK Reprise release features a tri-coloured Reprise steamboat label and matte gatefold sleeve. Reissues typically have glossy sleeves or simplified label designs. The stamped runouts RSLP 9000A1-♢H and RSLP 9000B1-♢H also confirm original manufacture; later pressings use etched runouts or different catalogue formats.
Why is there such a large price drop from Mint to Good?
Condition is the primary driver of value on this pressing. The jump from Mint (224.16 USD) to VG+ (153.38 USD) reflects the rarity of unplayed copies; most 1969 records show play wear. Below VG, surface noise and scratches become audible during quiet passages, reducing appeal to serious collectors. The lowest listing at 30.58 USD likely represents copies with significant damage or heavy play.
Is this pressing more or less sought than other Fleetwood Mac Then Play On releases?
The UK Reprise original is the most collected variant: 2513 community members own it against 1646 who want it. This want-to-have ratio (1646:2513) suggests moderate scarcity relative to demand. Only 31 copies are currently for sale, indicating limited turnover. Original UK pressings command higher prices than later reissues or non-UK variants due to the matte gatefold and tri-coloured label.
