Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use A-52, CLP 1808, A - 52, A-52-S) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AS-52-A-1 LW VAN GELDER STEREO and AS-52-B-1 LW VAN GELDER STEREO. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
