About this record
MGM's 1968 stereo reissue carries distinct dead-wax markings—Side 1 stamped SE-3918 SIDE-1 63-ST-330-RE-2 and Side 2 SE-3918 SIDE-2 63-ST-331-RE-3—that confirm the pressing plant and reissue generation. Catalogue SE3918 compiles 14 tracks across both sides, yet demand remains modest: 72 collectors want it against 3971 who own one, a ratio that keeps even clean copies affordable.
What drives its value
This MGM reissue trades on condition more than rarity. A Mint copy reaches 15.28 USD, while NM drops to 13.68 USD; the VG+ tier sits at 10.46 USD and VG at 7.24 USD—a steep slide that reflects wear sensitivity on a budget compilation.
Currently 54 copies are listed for sale, with the lowest priced at 1.32 USD, signaling abundant stock. The want-to-have ratio of 72 against 3971 owners confirms this is a common pressing rather than a sought reissue.
Stereo sound and the 1968 date place it well after Williams' death, making it a collector's entry point rather than an original-era artifact. Value hinges entirely on finding a VG+ or better copy; anything lower trades near replacement cost.
How to appraise this pressing
Verify the catalogue number SE3918 on the front cover and spine label. Examine both sides' dead-wax etchings: Side 1 must read SE-3918 SIDE-1 63-ST-330-RE-2 and Side 2 SE-3918 SIDE-2 63-ST-331-RE-3 to confirm this specific pressing plant and reissue iteration.
The label should identify MGM Records and list all 14 tracks. Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light for hairline scratches and the jacket for creasing or foxing; stereo reissues of this era are prone to light surface noise even when visually clean.
No barcode appears on this pressing, so rely on the matrix codes and catalogue number as primary identifiers. Play-test at least one side to rule out warping or locked grooves.

Frequently asked
What is a VG+ copy of SE3918 worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ graded copy is valued at 10.46 USD. This represents the sweet spot for a played but well-maintained example; anything below VG+ drops sharply to 7.24 USD (VG) or lower, so condition assessment is critical before purchase.
How do I confirm I have the correct pressing?
Check the dead-wax etchings on both sides. Side 1 must show SE-3918 SIDE-1 63-ST-330-RE-2 and Side 2 must show SE-3918 SIDE-2 63-ST-331-RE-3. These matrix codes are unique to this MGM reissue and distinguish it from other Hank Williams compilations or pressings.
Is this a first pressing or a reissue?
This is a reissue, released by MGM in 1968. The RE-2 and RE-3 suffixes in the dead-wax indicate reissue status. It is not an original-era pressing and was compiled well after Williams' death, making it a later-generation compilation rather than a contemporary release.
Why is there such a big price drop from Mint to VG?
A Mint copy is valued at 15.28 USD while VG falls to 7.24 USD—a steep decline driven by this pressing's common availability (54 copies currently for sale) and modest collector demand (72 want it versus 3971 who own one). Buyers have many options, so only pristine examples command a premium.
What should I expect to pay if I find one for sale?
The lowest asking price currently is 1.32 USD, though that likely reflects heavy wear or a quick-sale listing. Realistically, a playable VG+ copy should cost around 10.46 USD based on the price guide, while NM examples reach 13.68 USD. Avoid paying more than the Mint estimate of 15.28 USD unless the copy is truly flawless.
