The earliest pressings are from 1984, in Mexico, US, Colombia, Dominican Republic and more. One of them is Ariola S-947.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use S-947, SL-7137, SP-107, A-276) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S-947 A MP2 8-V-84 RICO and S-947 B MP1 7-V-84 RICO. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
