When was Dreamin' first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1960, in US, UK, Canada. One of them is Liberty LST 7179.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LST 7179, LRP 3179, LST-7179, HA-G 2306) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, LST 7179-1 and LST 7179-2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
