How do I tell if my copy of This Time is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use APL1-0539, AFL1-0539, VNL1-7396, RCA-5164) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, APL10539-A-2S H and APL10539-B-2S H.
