About this record
RCA's 1979 French compilation carries the original Impact sleeve design and price code IM 01, distinguishing it from later reissues that used different artwork. The red label and Bld Vincent Auriol address mark this as the first pressing, a detail absent from subsequent editions.
Demand sits at 9 want against 52 in the community collection, a ratio that reflects modest collector interest relative to availability.
What drives its value
This pressing trades on its status as the original 1979 French issue rather than rarity or scarcity. The price_guide spans from 19.04 USD in Mint down to 1.00 USD in Poor condition, with a VG+ copy valued at 13.03 USD and VG at 9.02 USD.
The lowest asking price across 10 active listings is 3.48 USD, well below the VG estimate, signaling soft demand. The 11-track compilation format and Chanson-Pop crossover appeal limit collector premium; reissue variants dilute exclusivity.
Condition grade drives nearly all value differentiation on this title—a Mint copy commands 19.04 USD while a Fair copy drops to 2.00 USD, a steep curve typical of mid-tier catalogue entries where original pressings hold modest collector weight.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the RCA catalogue number 6886 815, the 1979 release year, and the red label stock. The original issue carries the Impact design sleeve and price code IM 01 printed on the back cover, along with the Bld Vincent Auriol address.
The record itself is stereo, 11 tracks, and pressed in France. Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light for dust and marks; a Mint copy shows no signs of play or handling, while VG+ allows light surface dust that does not affect playback.
VG copies show visible dust and light wear but remain fully playable. The absence of a barcode on original 1979 pressings is normal; later reissues may carry one.
Verify the label color and address block against the reissue variants, which used different sleeve designs and may carry different catalogue markings.
