How do I tell if my copy of Cello Concerto is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LSC-2490, LM-2490, SB 2114, 640.673) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, L2 RY0997-1S I B1 and L2 RY0998-6S I B2.
