Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SRS 67128, 6338 010, SRS-67128, 134 582 MFY) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SR 67128-A- S1 1S A2 o and SR 67128-B- S1 1S A2 o. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
