Very frustrating that you did not read the forum rules and posted such a stupid post 🙄🙄

I dislike the Doors, but like a challenge. That said, doing a quick search on discogs, there are 35 different US listings for this release from 1967 alone, so it's not easy without cracking it open. Basically you need to go to discogs, read the fine print for each entry and try to narrow it down. Even then you'll not know which pressing plant it's from without seeing the record itself. Good luck!

There are a handful of real answers that could be given without opening the record but where’s the fun in that. 
 

If you just want to know if it’s a first pressing or not  I’ll tell you with 100% certainty it is not a first press.
