The earliest pressings are from 1988, in US, UK, Brazil, Canada and more. One of them is WTG Records SP 45036.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP 45036, 463266 1, 177.105/1-463266, EPC 463266 1) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above.
