Hi there,
I cannot identify the release.
About Yamato : it's written ''1975'' at the bottom but I do not know if it's a first or a second release according to the top both lines which doesn't mean any concret dates to me.

Ginga no Tetsudo do not have any date written, but same both lines without concret dates...

Could somebody translate these please? Thank you!

昭和 (Showa) and 平成 (Heisei) are era dates according to the traditional Japanese calendar.

The first book was originally printed in Showa 50 (1975) and your book is the 31st printing from Showa 52 (1977).

The second was originally printed in Showa 56 (1981) and your copy is an unnumbered reprint from Heisei 1 (1989) (the first year of the new era is written a little differently, as 平成元年).
