Similar to the other first pressing with the same six-eye deep groove Columbia labels, but with only slight variations to the label and back cover layouts.
On the labels, "The Jazz Messengers" is in three lines, not two. The side number is larger and to the right of the label code, not on top of it.
The back cover has a similar full-color layout of Columbia catalog records, but reads "exciting moments from Columbia's treasury of jazz," with different records pictured. There is no address listed at the bottom. Otherwise, everything is the same.
