How do I tell if my copy of Dynamica is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LSA 2287, LSA-2287, SF-5097, LSP-2287) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, L2 PY3755-1S I A5 and L2 PY3756-5S I A2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
