RepriseOriginal pressing: 1970£30-£100 for a clean UK original with insert; early label variants command a premium

The UK first pressing on Reprise, catalogue RSLP 9092, features the solarised photograph of Neil Young on the front and includes a printed lyric inner/insert. The label is the period Reprise 'steamboat' or two-tone design, and genuine copies carry consistent matrix suffixes from UK pressing plants.

3 Tells That Reveal a Fake

  1. 1

    Counterfeits reproduce the solarised cover photo with weak contrast and a colour cast, where the original is a crisp high-contrast image.

  2. 2

    Fakes pair the wrong Reprise label variant with the sleeve or use an incorrect catalogue style for 1970.

  3. 3

    Bootleg copies omit the printed lyric inner and show runout etching without the period-correct plant codes.
