About this record
The T1 prefix stamped in the runout—visible on all four sides as T1 NBLP-7076-AS-TH2, T1 NBLP-7076-BS-TH1, T1 NBLP-7076-CS-TH2, and T1 NBLP-7076-DS-TH2—identifies this 1977 US pressing as a Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute product, not the Casablanca in-house plant version. The gatefold includes "The Evolution Of KISS" booklet and was recorded live at the L.A.
Forum, mixed at Electric Lady Recording Studios in NYC. Catalogue numbering varies across the package: NBLP-7076-2 on the spine, NBLP-7076 on inner sleeves, and NBLP 7076-2 on center labels, where the record side and catalog number sit left and right of the hole.
What drives its value
Mint copies command 245.80 USD, while NM drops to 219.93 USD and VG+ settles at 168.18 USD—a steep grade-dependent curve that reflects the original gatefold's vulnerability to wear. The VG price of 116.43 USD marks a significant threshold; below that, G+ copies fetch 64.68 USD and G copies 38.81 USD.
Currently 58 copies are listed for sale, with the lowest priced at 4.35 USD (likely poor condition). Community data shows 9723 collectors own this pressing against 636 who want it, indicating strong supply relative to demand.
The T1 Terre Haute pressing is less scarce than Casablanca in-house variants, which moderates prices compared to rarer pressings in the series.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number NBLP-7076-2 on the spine and NBLP 7076-2 on the center label. The dead-wax matrix strings—T1 NBLP-7076-AS-TH2 (side A), T1 NBLP-7076-BS-TH1 (side B), T1 NBLP-7076-CS-TH2 (side C), T1 NBLP-7076-DS-TH2 (side D)—confirm Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute manufacture; the T1 prefix is the plant's identifier.
The gatefold must include the "Evolution Of KISS" booklet. Center labels display the record side on the left and catalog number on the right of the spindle hole.
Grade by the gatefold's laminate (crease, seam separation, and ink wear), the inner sleeves' condition, and the vinyl surface (hairline scratches, play wear, and warp). No barcode appears on this edition.

Frequently asked
How do I identify the Terre Haute pressing versus other 1977 US versions?
The T1 prefix in all four runout strings—T1 NBLP-7076-AS-TH2, T1 NBLP-7076-BS-TH1, T1 NBLP-7076-CS-TH2, T1 NBLP-7076-DS-TH2—is the Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute identifier. Casablanca in-house pressings lack this prefix. The catalogue number NBLP-7076-2 appears on the spine and as NBLP 7076-2 on center labels.
What is a VG+ copy worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 168.18 USD. This represents a significant drop from NM at 219.93 USD, reflecting the gatefold's susceptibility to creasing and seam wear even with light play.
Why does condition matter so much on this record?
The spread from Mint at 245.80 USD to VG at 116.43 USD demonstrates that condition drives the entire market. The gatefold sleeve with "Evolution Of KISS" booklet is fragile; creases, seam splits, and laminate separation are common and directly reduce value. Vinyl surface condition compounds this sensitivity.
What is the lowest price I might find this record listed at?
The lowest current asking price is 4.35 USD, though this reflects poor condition (likely F or P grade). At that grade, the price guide estimates 25.87 USD (F) or 12.94 USD (P), so a 4.35 USD listing suggests significant damage or a clearance sale.
How many copies are in circulation, and is this pressing hard to find?
Community data shows 9723 collectors own this pressing against 636 who want it, and 58 copies are currently for sale. This T1 Terre Haute pressing is relatively common compared to rarer plant variants, making it accessible but not a bargain—the 4.11 rating from 488 reviews confirms its status as a standard, well-regarded issue.
