When was Huckle Buck first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1964, in UK, France, Ireland, Netherlands and more. One of them is His Master's Voice POP 1377.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use POP 1377, CF168, POP (I)1377, 45 POP 1377) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7XEA 21167 and 7XEA 21166. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
