The earliest pressings are from 1966, in UK, Australia, Ireland, Italy and more. One of them is Piccadilly 7N.35343.
How do I tell if my copy of Dandy is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 7N.35343, 7N 35343, AP-1299, Np 5095) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7N.35343-A and 7N.35343-B.
