How do I tell if my copy of Valli is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PS 2017, PVLP 1014, 6353, PS 2017 V) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PS 2017 A TML-M BEST and PS 2017 B BEST.
