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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use C1-93559, 793559-1, 793559 1, 11001404) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, C1-1-93559-Z1-DMM SP1-1 MASTERDISK and C1-2-93559-Z1-DMM SP1-1. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
