Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use GEP 8882, MGEP 8882, GEP (I) 8882, GEPO 8882) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7TCE 762-1N RRR KT 0 and 7TCE 763-1N GMA KT 24. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
