The earliest pressings are from 2002, in Germany, Belgium, Italy, Netherlands and more. One of them is Kontor Records K253, released July 9, 2002.
How do I tell if my copy of E is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use K253, 740696-1, SPY 49, DNA 323-12) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is E on vinyl worth?
