Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RBT. 1001, EMI 2386, 4C 006-97399, 4 C 006-97 399) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, RBT-1001 Side 1   G   M and RBT-1001 Side 2   G   M. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
