The earliest pressings are from 1964, in US, UK, Canada. One of them is Wand LP 659.
How do I tell if my copy of Volume II is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LP 659, WAND LP 659, 659, LP-659) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, WAND LP 659 A and LP WAND 659-B2.
