Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use M6-829S1, STML 11290, STML11290, STMLO. 10119) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 116-82951-E 5 RS-7571- 2 2-03B # 13 and 116-82951-E 5 R S-7570- 1- 1-03B # 13. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
