The earliest pressings are from 1964, in US, UK, Canada, Germany and more. One of them is Dot Records 45-16658.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 45-16658, DS 16658, 16658, 16658X) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MB-19186 and MB-19187.
