The earliest pressings are from 1988, in Italy, UK, Japan, Australia and more. One of them is CGD INT 15364.

How do I tell if my copy of Boys And Girls is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use INT 15364, INT 10801, PWLT 11, PWL 11) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 2c INT 15364-1L and 2c INT 15364-2L. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
