About this record
Vertigo catalogue 830 049-1 from 1986 lacks the "Made in Holland" text beneath Stereo on either label—a distinguishing variant among four European pressings of this Status Quo title. PRS Baarn stamped the runout matrix 830 049 1 1Y 2 ℗1986 670 04 1211 on side A and 830 049 1 2Y 1 ℗1986 670 03 168 on side B.
Demand sits at 224 want against 4130 have in the collector base, with 91 copies currently listed at a floor of 5.12 USD.
What drives its value
Condition drives the entire price curve on this pressing. A Mint copy commands 28.32 USD, while NM drops to 25.34 USD; VG+ settles at 19.38 USD and VG at 13.42 USD.
The gap from M to VG reflects the sensitivity of 1986 Vertigo stock to handling wear. At 5.12 USD, the lowest asking price signals heavy supply—91 copies for sale—against modest collector demand of 224 want.
The label variant status (no "Made in Holland" on either side, unlike catalogue 8055034, 22831421, or 9237493) matters only to completists; the core market values playable condition over pressing rarity. Community rating of 3.78 across 308 votes suggests solid but not exceptional collector regard.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the Vertigo label absence of "Made in Holland" text beneath the Stereo designation on both A and B sides. Verify catalogue number 830 049-1 and barcode presence.
The runout stamps are the final proof: side A reads 830 049 1 1Y 2 ℗1986 670 04 1211 and side B reads 830 049 1 2Y 1 ℗1986 670 03 168, both pressed at PRS Baarn. Copyright Control appears on the B label only.
Grade by vinyl surface gloss and groove definition; 1986 Vertigo pressings in VG+ condition retain deep black color and minimal hairline marks. The printed inner sleeve with credits and photos is original stock.
Track A1 and B4 carry Dave Edmunds Productions Ltd. credits; A2 through B3 and B5–B6 list Handle Artists production.

Frequently asked
How do I tell this 830 049-1 variant from the other three European pressings?
This pressing omits "Made in Holland" on both label sides. Catalogue 8055034 prints it on both sides; 22831421 only on side A; 9237493 omits it but adds LC next to the center hole. Check the label text directly beneath Stereo on both A and B.
What is a VG+ copy worth?
According to the price guide, VG+ is valued at 19.38 USD. This estimate reflects typical market asking prices as of the guide date and assumes clean vinyl with minimal surface noise and secure grooves.
Why is the market floor so low at 5.12 USD when VG is 13.42 USD?
The 91 copies for sale include heavily played and damaged stock priced to move quickly. The 5.12 USD floor represents distressed inventory; most collectible copies in VG or better condition trade closer to the 13.42 USD (VG) or 19.38 USD (VG+) range.
What do the runout stamps tell me about pressing authenticity?
The stamped matrix 830 049 1 1Y 2 ℗1986 670 04 1211 on side A and 830 049 1 2Y 1 ℗1986 670 03 168 on side B confirm PRS Baarn pressing and 1986 manufacture. Runouts are stamped, not etched, which is typical for Vertigo 1986 stock.
Is this pressing rare or common?
With 4130 collectors owning it and only 224 seeking it, this is common stock. The 91 copies currently listed for sale reinforce abundant supply. Rarity among the four European variants is negligible; the label text difference appeals only to variant completists, not to general collectors.
