When was Django first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1957, in UK. One of them is Oriole MG 10019.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MG 10019) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MG 10019A-2 AVIII and MG 10019B AVIII.
