In my experience, it's generally records from the 90s that were pressed in low volume that are now sought after by my generation of Gen-X'rs that are going for good money. Try to find a copy of Marilyn Manson's "Mechanical Animals" or "Antichrist Superstar" and you will see what I mean. Vinyl was the mainstream format in the 60's, 70's and into the 80's. The volume of pressings makes those albums worth less, certainly there are outliers on the older albums like certain pressing of Beatles albums going for thousands of dollars but they are thre exception in my experience. Your milage may vary...
Value of mint condition first pressing of Sgt. Pepper?
I have a mint condition first pressing (I think) copy of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Vinyl is shiny and plays flawlessly, jacket is shiny with few indentations, and insert looks like new. Any idea how much it might be worth. Also, any idea as to how much value something like this gains over the years? I'm thinking of giving it to my granddaughter (age 4) for her to cash in when she graduates high school.
