The reprint would say this as well, as the copyright hadn't changed.  But you'd need to find someone with a different version to check if there is a note saying 'Second Printing, Nov 1978' or something similar.

Here's someone else's scans: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VTJTHYCC

 

Here's someone selling the second edition:

This 16-page softcover program was one of the earliest products available for sale in theaters where Star Wars was shown in 1977. It features color and black and white photos, cast biographies, character information, and accounts of making the film. The second edition features a textured cover, compared to the glossy cover of the first edition. The 2nd edition interior pages also have a matte rather than a glossy finish.

 

Here's a page selling a copy for $40 bucks (1st edition)
