Broderick Record (U.S.A.) / c. 1926
Corporate background:
Unknown (have info? Please send to info.re.78s@shaw.ca). Label scan courtesy of UK music researcher and
collector Bill Dean-Myatt.
Design: A
richly Victorian-looking design, featuring an
‘Americana’ Tuscan font for the label name, which
follows the outer curve in pre-WWI fashion.
The banner-style heading is supported by
heavy arabesque ornament, reminiscent of period velvet flock
wallpaper.
The use of the word ‘Record’ is
also anachronistic in the Roaring Twenties.
