I suppose that would be the "preponderance of evidence" we've all heard tell about!
Yes, even libraries have incorrect data, let us all remember that.  I would trust DG records before some particular cataloguer post facto.

The Puccini cuts were made in October 1949, according to these sources:

and

Deutsche Grammophon also has 1949 as Fischer-Dieskau's first recording
date for the label.
