Corporate background:

Ron Hall, author of ‘The CHUM Chart Book’ writes: “The Quality-King label was used only for King, Federal & Deluxe labels which were all owned by King Records. The numbering system ran from 4001 through 4374. Quality appears to have lost the distibution of the King labels in 1956 when Bill Doggett's "Honky Tonk" (King 4950) was released by Phonodisc as Regency

520.

“Selected King, Federal and Deluxe releases continued through 1962. Phonodisc's Delta label also had selected King, Federal and Deluxe releases right through to the last number, 3251.”
