When was Symphony No. 9 first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1964, in UK. One of them is His Master's Voice ASD 596.

How do I tell if my copy of Symphony No. 9 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ASD 596, ALP 2047) 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.
