Question
I recently bought an abbey road picture disk (catalog number 5cP06204243) for 20 dollars from my local record store.  I am interested in finding out the general value and rarity it.  Thank you very much.

Answer
Hi Michael...

Well, if I'm not mistaken, that would be the Dutch issue of the picture disc. Current value in mint condition would be about $50 US. There were a lot of these picture discs made, so they're not particularly "rare", but that doesn't detract from the genuine value of them. I think they're beautiful and look great framed on the wall! Keep in mind that it will NEVER go down in value, it will only go up, so take good care of it. Thanks for the question!

Peace,
Pattie
