About this record
The UK first pressing of The Final Cut carries catalogue SHPF 1983 on spine and labels, pressed by EMI Records Ltd. without a barcode—a key identifier against the barcode variant (4001379) and the 1983 European pressing (1C 064-65042). The dead-wax matrix SHPF 1983 A - 1 U - 1 - 2 TML S on side A and SHPF 1983 B - 2 U - 1 TML M on side B confirm the original EMI pressing plant.
Demand sits at 1925 want against 9284 have, with 143 copies listed for sale at a floor of 11.76 USD.
What drives its value
This 1983 UK Harvest pressing commands a wide condition-dependent spread: Mint copies reach 72.34 USD, while NM drops to 64.73 USD, VG+ settles at 49.50 USD, and VG copies trade at 34.27 USD. The absence of a barcode distinguishes it from later variants and reinforces original-pressing status.
At 143 copies for sale, supply is moderate; the want-to-have ratio of 1925 to 9284 reflects steady collector interest but not scarcity panic. The 1983 European pressing (1C 064-65042) and 1984 Australian CBS reissue (CDCBS 25416) occupy lower tiers, making the UK Harvest original the reference copy for condition-grading and value benchmarking among Pink Floyd's post-Wall catalogue.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number SHPF 1983 printed on spine, front labels, and back cover. The gatefold sleeve includes a black company inner and title sticker on front.
Examine the dead-wax runout: side A reads SHPF 1983 A - 1 U - 1 - 2 TML S (or variant SHPF 1983 A - 5 U - 1 - 2 TML S), and side B reads SHPF 1983 B - 2 U - 1 TML M (or SHPF 1983 B - 4 U - 2 TML M). The rim text states MANUFACTURED IN THE UK BY EMI RECORDS LIMITED.
Critically, this version lacks a barcode; the barcode variant carries 4001379. Grade by vinyl surface cleanliness, groove wear, and sleeve condition (gatefold integrity, sticker adhesion, inner sleeve presence).
The 12 tracks span Roger Waters' requiem concept, recorded between July and December 1982 at eight UK studios.

Frequently asked
How do I tell this UK pressing apart from the 1983 European pressing?
The UK Harvest pressing carries catalogue SHPF 1983 on the spine and labels, with dead-wax matrix SHPF 1983 A - 1 U - 1 - 2 TML S (side A) and SHPF 1983 B - 2 U - 1 TML M (side B), pressed by EMI Records Ltd. The European pressing uses catalogue 1C 064-65042 and a different matrix. The UK version also lacks a barcode, whereas the barcode variant is numbered 4001379.
What is a VG+ copy of this pressing worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 49.50 USD. This represents the midpoint between NM (64.73 USD) and VG (34.27 USD), reflecting typical wear on sleeve and vinyl without major defects. Actual sales may vary; the lowest asking price across 143 listed copies is 11.76 USD.
What condition should I expect for the lowest-priced copies?
The floor price of 11.76 USD typically corresponds to heavily played or damaged copies grading G or lower. A G copy is estimated at 11.42 USD and a G+ at 19.04 USD, so copies at 11.76 USD likely show significant surface noise, groove wear, or sleeve damage. Mint copies reach 72.34 USD, a gap that underscores condition's dominance in this market.
Does this pressing have a barcode?
No. This UK Harvest original (SHPF 1983) was released without a barcode. A later variant of the same pressing does carry barcode 4001379. The absence of a barcode is a reliable marker of the first-issue UK pressing.
How many copies are in circulation?
Community data shows 9284 collectors have this pressing, against 1925 who want it. Currently 143 copies are listed for sale across the market. The rating stands at 4.14 out of 5 based on 811 user ratings, indicating broad familiarity and generally positive reception among Pink Floyd collectors.
