How do I tell if my copy of Piano Concerto N°1 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ALP 1794, ASD 370, SG 7241, QALP 10280) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 2XEA 1885 - 2N N I and 2XEA 1886 - 5N A I. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
