Pressings
The earliest pressing on file here is the 1957 Prestige 7111 in mono, and it is the only US copy of its era we list -- everything after it is a reissue. Japan carried the record for decades: LPR-88055 in 1974, SMJ-6510(M) in 1976, VIJJ-30068 in 1993, all mono. For a new copy, Craft's 2023 CR00616 mono on 180 gram is the one to buy; a 2021 UK numbered reissue also uses the 7111 number.
