Printings 1-3 are all the same size.

I wouldn't advise displaying an Issue you only have one copy of, if any sunlight at all gets into the room the comics cover will fade over time.
You would be better off buying the third printing for display, it is pretty much identicle to the first and second, but nowhere near as expensive.

It is largely regarded as the first issue of the Copper Age.
