Corporate background:
Music business entrepreneurs Moe Asch and Herbert Harris were originally in partnership as Ash-Stinson. After they split up, Asch founded Disc Records and Harris launched the Stinson label.
Design: A stylized sweeping ‘S’ defines the upper and lower segments.

The label name, which is relatively small in size and light in weight, flows into the S shape.

The burgundy and silver combination was popular in the 1950s.
