The 1967 catalog does not show anything that is a positive match to
those earlier 78 releases -- however there are a handful of things
that showed up in 1949 as "with instrumentalists" that are listed in
1967 as "The Columbia Symphony Orchestra."
As for CDs, Sony has released a 22-CD "Stravinsky Edition" (SX22K
46290) that includes most of the later stereo recordings, and
"Stravinsky Conducts Stravinsky: The Mono Years 1952-1955"
(Masterworks Heritage 63325).
It looks like the definitive source for this information would be
"Igor Stravinsky--The Composer in the Recording Studio; A
Comprehensive Discography," by Philip Stuart, published by Greenwood
in 1991 and currently out of print
(http://www.greenwood.com/catalog/SKZ%252f.aspx). OCLC/WorldCat shows
217 copies in libraries, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find.
