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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 1 J 006-20.973, 8E 006 20973, 15079, 006-20973) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 006-20973-A RD 2 and 006-20973-B MM 3. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
