How do I tell if my copy of Symphony No. 5, Op. 47 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SDBR-3010, LPBR-6010) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SDBR-3010-1-T8 ARC and SDBR-3010-2-T8 ARC. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
