When was Soultrane first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1958, in US, Scandinavia. One of them is Prestige 7142, released October 1958.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 7142, PRESTIGE 7142) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PRLP-7142-A ⇀AB RVG and PRLP-7142⋅B AB RVG F.
