Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DZSLN 55660, UNL 406, YELPL1 276) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CKAY 27360 10S D ∆ P・1A 2 and CKAY 27361 12S D ∆ P・1A 2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
