The earliest pressings are from 1990, in US, Australia, Belgium, Denmark and more. One of them is Tommy Boy TB 961.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use TB 961, TBS 961, 656534 6, TBS-961) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, TB-961 A 1-1 DMS cg☮ and TB-961 B 1-1 DMS cg☮. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
