The earliest pressings are from 1968, in UK, Japan, Ireland, Malaysia and more. One of them is CBS EP 6400.
How do I tell if my copy of Mrs. Robinson is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EP 6400, SONE 70001, EP.6400, 6400) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, EP 6400 A1 and EP 6400 B1.
