About this record
The runout matrix DMM B-0867 A-2/84 S III and B-0867 B-1/84 S III identify this 1984 German pressing as a Sonopress production for Avon Musik, distinguishing it from other Whittaker Schlager releases of the era. Catalogue INT 161.552 appears in two typographic variants across copies, a minor documentation quirk common to West German pop pressings.
With 823 collectors holding this title against only 6 seeking it, supply vastly outpaces demand, keeping even Mint copies under 7.14 USD.
What drives its value
This pressing commands modest value across all grades. A Mint copy reaches 7.14 USD, while NM sits at 6.39 USD, VG+ at 4.88 USD, and VG at 3.38 USD.
The lowest asking price across 201 active listings is 0.53 USD, reflecting the title's soft secondary market. The condition-to-price curve is steep: moving from Mint to VG+ represents a drop of 4.88 USD from 7.14 USD.
Demand is negligible—only 6 want-list entries against 823 have-list entries—signaling this as a common pressing with limited collector urgency. As a 1984 Schlager album on a regional West German label, it occupies the lower tier of Whittaker's discography, where reissues and catalog stock dominate inventory.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Avon Musik label imprint and catalogue number INT 161.552 (note the period variant INT. 161.552 on some copies).
The dead-wax matrix runout is the definitive marker: Side A reads DMM B-0867 A-2/84 S III, and Side B reads DMM B-0867 B-1/84 S III, both stamped by Sonopress in West Germany. The DMM prefix confirms direct-metal mastering, a mid-1980s Sonopress technique.
The backcover credits Munro-Studio, Hamburg and Mashville Studios, Maschen as recording venues, with Tembo Production and Intercord Ton GmbH (Stuttgart) as distributor. The barcode is present.
Grade by vinyl surface condition: examine for hairline scratches, dust-trap rings, and groove wear under oblique light. Stereo separation and tracking distortion in the inner grooves indicate play history.
A Mint copy shows no visible wear; VG+ permits light surface marks that do not affect playback.

Frequently asked
How do I tell this 1984 Avon pressing from other Roger Whittaker Schlager LPs?
Check the runout matrix in the dead wax at the label's edge. This pressing bears DMM B-0867 A-2/84 S III (Side A) and DMM B-0867 B-1/84 S III (Side B). The DMM prefix and Sonopress plant code are unique to this 1984 West German edition. The catalogue INT 161.552 also appears on the sleeve and label. No other Whittaker pressing uses this exact matrix sequence.
What is a VG+ copy worth, and how does it compare to Mint?
A VG+ copy is estimated at 4.88 USD, while a Mint copy is valued at 7.14 USD according to the price guide. The gap reflects the premium for pristine condition on a common pressing. However, the lowest asking price across 201 active listings is 0.53 USD, indicating that many copies sell well below guide value in a soft market.
Why is this record so cheap compared to other Whittaker titles?
Supply vastly exceeds demand: 823 collectors have this pressing against only 6 seeking it. As a 1984 Schlager album on a regional West German label, it was pressed in quantity for the domestic market and has not gained collector traction outside Germany. The abundance of stock copies keeps secondary-market prices depressed.
Is this a first pressing or a reissue?
This is the original 1984 pressing, as confirmed by the copyright date (℗ & © 1984 Avon Musik) and the Sonopress plant code in the runout. The DMM mastering and 1984 date stamp in the matrix indicate it was cut and pressed in that year for initial release, not a later reissue.
What do the OrnuMusic and Slezak credits on the label mean?
These are publishing and composition credits printed on both the backcover and label. OrnuMusic is credited as composer/publisher for most tracks; Slezak is credited for tracks B4 and B6. This publishing information helps identify the correct pressing variant and confirms the track sequence matches the original 1984 release.
