Sorry Amanda, I can't help identify which edition your Albano is.
One of my 'Accurate Color Tone' has the 8006 Melrose Ave.,Los Angeles, Cal 90046 address with Instructions.
The other 'Accurate' has no street or P.O. address and no Instructions
BOTH my Accurates have the ® after the ALBANO-WAITE.
I seem to recall that the consensus is that the ® marks usually come later in print runs.
(But don't quote me on that though. )
Both of my 'New Color Deluxe' have the P.O.Box 46265 address.
The one with instructions does have the ®.
The one without instructions doesn't have the ®.
Your New Color Deluxe is different again - with instructions and without the ® !
So confusion reigns supreme, and no-one knows for sure the printing/edition order.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, we need a spin-off thread listing the details of each and every back of the 1968 Albano boxes.
Rodney, Gregory, Bronzino, Philipe and other participants, you don't happen to have an 8006 Melrose Ave without the ® lying around, do you?
Or would this only help to send us all further around the bend and not get us any closer to identifying which edition came first....
