Odeon (Denmark) / c. 1946
Corporate background:
In 1929 General Phonograph sold the
Okeh and Odeon labels to Columbia.
As apparent here, the label became a
product of the Parlophone company.
Musicologist Bill
Dean-Myatt writes: “Odeon
DK-1267 was recorded in Copenhagen in January 1954.
“The history of Odeon is incredibly
complicated and world-wide, they must have had over 1200
different catalogue series.
“Once part of the Lindström
empire, the brand name now belongs to EMI.”
Design: The
drawing of the Odeon theatre has been updated and has become
more stylized.
