Columbia (New Zealand) / 1930
Corporate background:
Label scan courtesy of UK music researcher
and collector Bill Dean-Myatt, who notes that this session was recorded in
Rotorua April 14, 1930.
Design: A
departure from the usually conservative Columbia format, with
ethnic aboriginal imagery forming the background.
The label name is in the same position as
usual, inside the lines of the round-cornered panels above and
below.
The usually blobby serifs on the
lettering have been sharpened.
The original ‘Note the Notes’
slogan has now evolved into ‘Magic Notes.’
