How do I tell if my copy of Macbeth is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use STUMM 70, INT 146.850, LL 1880) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, STUMM 70 A1 The Exchange PR-E ᗡ and STUMM 70 B1 Jon PR-E Ⴑ.
