About this record

The etched runout grooves featuring "FLOYD-A" and "FLOYD-B" distinguish this UK & Europe pressing of Pink Floyd's The Division Bell. Pressed in 1994 by EMI United Kingdom, the gatefold cover and laminated or matt options add collectible variety.

The picture labels include the matrix numbers 7243 8 28984 1 2 A and B, while the stamping includes 8289841 A-1-2-1 FLOYD-A TML-M and 8289841 B-2-1-1 FLOYD-B TML-X. This pressing reflects the shortened track versions compared to the CD release.

What drives its value

Price variation for this 1994 UK & Europe EMI pressing ranges from Mint at 342.75 USD down to Poor at 18.04 USD, with VG+ valued at 234.51 USD. Forty-eight copies are currently for sale, indicating moderate availability against a community of 4352 owners and 4453 wants, showing strong demand.

This pressing's value is boosted by its UK origin and specific matrix etchings, differentiating it from the 1994 US Columbia pressing catalogued as C 64200. The premium prices reflect collector preference for original European pressings with authentic runout identifiers.

How to appraise this pressing

To verify this EMI United Kingdom pressing, confirm the catalogue numbers 7243 8 28984 1 2 or EMD 1055 on the sleeve and labels.

The gatefold cover and picture labels with text referencing Pink Floyd Music (1987) Ltd and Made in the U.K. denote authenticity. Grading should reference the price guide values: NM at 306.67 USD, VG at 162.35 USD, and G at 54.12 USD to benchmark condition.
