Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use Ld A 7532, DC.26109, Ld AG 2640, 45.223 - A) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, D 34104 B 15-9-67 and D 34068 14-9-67. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
