The earliest pressings are from 1987, in UK, Germany, Australia, Denmark and more. One of them is Supreme Records SUPET 113.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SUPET 113, SUPE 113, SUPETX 113, SUPETP 113) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SUPET-113.A-1 MT DAMONT Noel and SUPET-113-B1 KN DAMONT. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
