Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BDS 5066, 2318011, BDS-ST 78007, 2318 011) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, BDS 5066 A - 2 MII SON STERLING and BDS 5066 B - 3 SON SON STERLING LH. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
