When was Peanuts first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1987, in Belgium, US, Germany. One of them is Magnetic S 9001.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use S 9001, M 9001, 0-86585, 7-89096) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S-9001- A Dyam AM and S-9001-B Dyam AM. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
