Is it significant that this one used the red label with a sticker rather than the white label?

WLP's though were traditionally distributed to radio stations (the black print on white background
more easily read in the possibly dark studio). Stickers could be placed or slapped on to stock
copies by various promo people as needed, so those pressings aren't necessarily "first" or as
early as a WLP might be.
The sticker on a, say, debut Bob Dylan LP would likely mean a very early pressing as there were
NO WLP's of the six -eye. Columbia was pretty inconsistent with their promo's.

I don't think it's particularly significant. It seems that Columbia used both white labels and stickers concurrently. There is no CBS on the label pictured, so the disc is an early pressing, made before 1961. The site linked below is a good source of info on labels.

and it has the word "Demonstration" stamped across a normal label. Don't see that variation here. I think I have a couple like that.
