Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 8148, SD 8148, 587074, 588074) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, A-12605-B P AT LW LP8148-A W and A-12606-B P AT LW LP-8148 B W. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
