John, I can't answer the direct question, but I can tell you that I have
Kodachrome slides annotated 1957-1959 which have a red border as well as
"View from this side" - perhaps an interim style.
I believe I have seen solid red mounts which would be from 1954-1955.

The between dates should have read 1950 and 1955.
