About this record
The runout matrix BS 2699-40446-1 T1 identifies this 1973 Warner Bros. pressing as a product of Columbia Records Pressing Plant in Terre Haute, Indiana — a detail that separates it from other early copies of Diamond Girl. With 294 copies currently for sale across the market, this US original remains accessible, yet the price swing from Mint to Good condition reveals how sharply condition matters: Mint copies command 136.56 USD while Poor examples trade for 7.19 USD.
What drives its value
Condition dominates the market value of this 1973 Warner Bros. pressing. A Mint copy reaches 136.56 USD, while the same album in NM grade sits at 122.19 USD — a meaningful but contained drop.
The real cliff appears at VG+: 93.44 USD. Move down to VG and the price falls to 64.69 USD.
At the lower end, a Good+ copy is worth 35.94 USD and a Poor pressing just 7.19 USD. With 294 copies listed for sale, inventory is substantial, yet community ownership (8049 have it) vastly outweighs active want (135 collectors seeking it), signaling this is neither rare nor in shortage.
The Terre Haute pressing plant attribution adds a minor collectibility factor among format specialists, but does not command a premium over other US 1973 printings.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the catalogue number BS 2699 printed on the label and inside right, top-right cover; the spine carries BS2699 without a space. The dead-wax runout will read either (S40,446) or (S40,447) depending on which side, or in full matrix form BS 2699-40446-1 T1 or BS 2699 40447-1-2 T1; the "T" suffix denotes a pressing.
The pressing plant, Columbia Records Terre Haute, does not appear on the sleeve but is confirmed through matrix research. The album has no barcode.
Grade by examining both sides for hairline scratches, scuffs to the label, and warp; the 10-track album spans both sides, so inspect playback surface uniformity. A Mint copy will show no signs of play or handling; NM allows only the lightest surface marks invisible at arm's length.
