When was At Newport first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1957, in US. One of them is American Recording Society G-437.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use G-437, MG V-8238) 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.
