About this record
Polydor's 1977 Canadian pressing of this Mireille Mathieu compilation stands apart from its European counterparts by catalogue number 2424 161—a regional variant that reflects the label's North American distribution strategy during the height of Mathieu's international career. The album collects twelve tracks of chanson and schlager material, positioning it as a niche title in the pop reissue market where only 2 copies currently list for sale.
What drives its value
This pressing trades on scarcity within a narrow collector base. The price guide spans from 6.38 USD in Mint condition down to 0.34 USD in Poor, with a VG+ copy valued at 4.37 USD—the realistic sweet spot for a well-played but clean example.
The lowest asking price of 4.35 USD reflects current market floor. Community ownership stands at 35 copies against 8 active want-list entries, a ratio that suggests modest but steady demand among Mathieu specialists and chanson enthusiasts.
As a Canadian regional issue rather than the original French or German Polydor pressing, this edition carries appeal primarily to completists building country-specific discographies. The tight supply (2 for sale) combined with the 4-out-of-5 community rating indicates this is a recognized, if not highly liquid, collectible.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Polydor label imprint and catalogue number 2424 161 on the spine and label. The 1977 date appears in the run-out groove or label credit.
As a Canadian Polydor release, it will differ in pressing plant and matrix coding from French or German originals—examine the dead-wax inscription to rule out a reissue or alternate plant. The absence of a barcode is consistent with 1977 North American pressings.
Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light: hairline scratches and light dust indicate VG+, while visible groove wear and surface noise on playback suggest VG or lower. The jacket should show no seam splits, writing, or water damage to achieve higher grades.
Play-test the opening and closing grooves to detect skips or locked grooves that would lower grade below VG.
