Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use R-2001, R9-2001, 12200, RV. 2002 (R. 2001)) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, R-2001-A (10.003) and R-2001-B 10.004. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
