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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PB-1939, PB 11939, JH-11939, 103587) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CR PB1939-A//44149-1-Y and PB1939-B//44150-1-Y. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
