which printing do I have?

Forgive me if I missed this in a forum search, but how do you determine which printing of Munchkin you have? The rules in the box say Version 1.03. Other than that, I don't see anything that would indicate which version I have. I purchased it approximately 8 years ago (?). Thanks for the help.

If you had a newer version, it would say, on the box, which printing you have. However, your set comes from the dark ages before printings were labeled. It would also be considered an outdated version, since starting in April of 2010 and to the end of 2011, all the standalone games available, plus their expansions, were reprinted, with Munchkin getting full-color cards. For those printings, many cards were tweaked, and the rules went from 4 pages to 6, to provide many more clarifications, including an example of combat.

It's possible that someone might be able glean from the rules sheet version what printings before and during 2006 that might have had that version.
