Shouldn't this flat edge version pre-date the safety edge version? The flat edge is listed as 1957 and onother mono (RM for remastered) is labled as 1956. Guessing those dates need to be switched? Also, the flat edge version has Lexington labels. Everything should match up on the first 12" pressing: flat edge, framed cover, Lexington Ave. on both labels and Lexington address on back of cover = 1956.
