Let's see...I've been collecting vinyl for a little over half a year, and I've definitely stumbled across some tasty gems. I found immaculate pressings of Ultimate Spinach's first two albums in a record store owner's back room - picked them up for ten bucks apiece. I've also got an original Japanese pressing of Rubber Soul (yes, I got a ludicrously good deal on it) and an LP by little-known Wisconsin proggers Sunblind Lion that's worth 30-40 smackaroos. Still, any vinyl is a treasure. Currently listening to a great early pressing of The Soft Parade I picked up yesterday.

What's the rarest prog album you own?
For clarification: you must have the physical album, be it vinyl, cassette, or CD (does not count if it was downloaded), and for simplicity's sake, we'll say that it's rare if it's generally difficult to find hard copies of it.

For me, the rarest album I own is an original 2001 copy (not the 2005 reissue) of maudlin of the Well's Leaving Your Body Map. I'm in the process of tracking down a copy of Bath, which is no easy task either.

Care to share? I'm guessing that some of the rarest stuff out there are limited quantity recording demos and such.
