The earliest pressings are from 1987, in Australia, France, Italy, Netherlands and more. One of them is Stiff Records L 38821.
How do I tell if my copy of Classic is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use L 38821, OTT 10002, Seez 67, 656.095) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AMX - 68985.

How much is Classic on vinyl worth?
