About this record
Hallmark Records catalogue SHM 777 stamps this UK pressing with the Pickwick International plant code in the dead wax—a telltale sign of a budget reissue rather than an original Johnny Cash release. The runout matrix reads SHM 777A and SHM 777B 2 across the two sides, confirming the Pickwick pressing.
With 117 copies currently for sale and a lowest asking price of 0.9 USD, this 12-track stereo compilation sits at the deep end of the Cash catalogue's value spectrum.
What drives its value
This pressing trades on condition alone. A Mint copy reaches 7.98 USD, while NM drops to 7.14 USD—a narrow margin that reflects the modest collector interest in Hallmark reissues.
The real cliff comes at VG+, where the price falls to 5.46 USD; by VG it hits 3.78 USD. The community snapshot shows 2740 collectors own a copy against only 57 who want one, a ratio that explains why 117 examples linger on the market.
Hallmark's Pickwick pressing sits well below original UK and US Cash LPs in desirability; this is a filler copy, not a cornerstone. Condition matters here because even a VG+ example at 5.46 USD commands only a fraction of what a comparable original pressing would fetch.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Hallmark Records label, catalogue number SHM 777, and the Pickwick International plant identification stamped in the dead wax. Side A runs SHM 777A; Side B is marked SHM 777B 2.
The absence of a barcode is consistent with UK Hallmark pressings of this era. Grade by visual inspection of the vinyl surface and play-test for surface noise and tracking stability.
A Mint copy shows no signs of play and retains its original gloss; NM allows only the faintest hairline marks under raking light. VG+ permits light surface marks and faint background noise during quiet passages, while VG accepts more pronounced wear and audible surface noise.
The 12-track stereo format and the Pickwick pressing plant confirm you hold the budget reissue, not an original Cash LP.

Frequently asked
What is this record worth in VG+ condition?
A VG+ copy is estimated at 5.46 USD according to the price guide. This represents a significant drop from Mint (7.98 USD) and reflects the modest collector demand for Hallmark reissues.
How do I identify this as a Pickwick pressing?
Check the dead wax stamping on both sides. Side A reads SHM 777A and Side B reads SHM 777B 2. The Pickwick International plant code appears in the runout; this distinguishes it from any original Cash pressing on another label or plant.
Why are there 117 copies for sale if collectors want this record?
Only 57 collectors want it against 2740 who already own one. The supply-to-demand ratio is heavily skewed toward oversupply, which is typical of Hallmark budget compilations. Most copies sit unsold because the market is saturated.
What is the lowest price I should expect to pay?
The current lowest asking price is 0.9 USD. This reflects the glut of copies and low collector priority; even a playable example commands minimal value on the secondary market.
Is this the same as the original Johnny Cash release?
No. This is a Hallmark Records compilation pressed by Pickwick International for the UK market. It is a budget reissue, not an original Cash LP on Columbia or another major label. The catalogue number SHM 777 and the Pickwick plant code confirm the reissue status.
