The earliest pressings are from 1971, in Netherlands, US, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is CBS S 52862.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use S 52862, H 30406, SRA255520, DLP 9011) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S-52802-1 and S-52802-2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
