Coral (Germany) / c. 1954
Corporate background:
Launched in the 1940s, a subsidiary of
Decca.
In the late 1960s, Coral would be absorbed
by MCA.
Design: The
slab-serif font used here for the label name (perhaps Beton
Bold, designed in 1931) is similar to that used on the American counterpart (note the different tail of the
R), but the angled spinning disc in the background is missing.
Tidy typography, as usual with German
printing.
