Notes

No "Inc" after "Bill Grauer Productions" at bottom of labels.
"Bill Grauer Productions, Inc" on back of sleeve.

Exactly same pressing and same runout than Mulligan Meets Monk, except the front sleeve with photo and info on back side of sleeve and no DG.
On back side of sleeve you can find information about another monk's release - RLP 12-300. It was relases in 1959, so this version was release not early than 1959.
But front cover still have logo of "Riverside Contemporary Series". it means this release was issued early than 1960.
Theoretically,third issue.
Some imported copies could have a Right Society "BIEM" stamp, sticked in back sleeve.
