The earliest pressings are from 1958, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Capitol Records ST 933.

How do I tell if my copy of Jazz Ultimate is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ST 933, T 933, T-933, T933) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, & ST1-933-N1 [Anvil symbol] and & ST-2-933-D4 [Anvil symbol]. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
