How do I tell if my copy of Art Pepper + Eleven is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use M 3568, S 7568, LAC 12229, S 3568) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, LKL 12-259 D5 and LKL 12-260 D6. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
