The earliest pressings are from 1957, in France. One of them is La Voix De Son Maître FELP 171.

How do I tell if my copy of Volume 2 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use FELP 171) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, M6 183656 2XLA 362 21 and M6 184025 2XLA 363 21.
