Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ILPS 9345, 9237-9345, L 35669, 89 434 XOT) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ILPS 9345 A-1U BÊCHE-DE-MER and ILPS 9345 B-1U WHO'S THAT WELL HUNG KIWI. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
