When was Vol. 1 first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1955, in France. One of them is Vogue EPL 7 066.

How do I tell if my copy of Vol. 1 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EPL 7 066) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
