An interesting subject. I too love to geek-out on the technical side of things sometimes. Another EVERY interesting mono vs. stereo mystery that isn't a Martin Denny subject, but related. The rare (and costly) Augie Colon album "Sophisticated Savage" has mystery about it. I once saw a website that listed every single LP release catalog number for Liberty Records. In that listing was a mono & a STEREO catalog number for "Sophisticated Savage" which was produced by Denny. To date, a stereo version has never been seen ANYWHERE. Here's where it gets interesting; on one of the Ultra-Lounge CD series discs, is a track from the "Sophisticated Savage" album that is IN STEREO.

Additionally, on Colon's second album "Chant of the Jungle", which was released in stereo, there is an obviously MONO tune included.
