When was EP first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1983, in Finland. One of them is Propaganda Records PROP 015.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PROP 015) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PROP 015 A MTV and PROP 015 B MTV.
