The earliest pressings are from 1991, in Italy, UK, Germany, Australia and more. One of them is GFB Records GFB 020.

How do I tell if my copy of Extrasyn is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use GFB 020, ZYX 6550-12, ADICT003, ZB 44971) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, GFB 020 A and GFB 020 B.
