Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EPA 1-1515, EPC-1515-1, EPC 1515-1, 20101) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, H2WH-2764 and H2WH-2765. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Loving You Vol.1 on vinyl worth?
