Second U.S. Label
The second, better known, Domino Records, a United States based label, was in business from 1924 to 1931, producing standard 10-inch lateral cut 78s. The label was a subsidiary of Plaza Music Company, headquartered in New York City. The label later became owned by American Record Corporation. Artists that they recorded included: Ben Pollack, as well as artists whose records were issued on other ARC labels.
In 1933, ARC reconstituted the Domino label - this time with the same label style, but in gold - for an exclusive 100 series sold only at the John Gabel Co. This lasted through about 1934.

Famous quotes containing the word label:
“Teaching Black Studies, I find that students are quick to label a black person who has grown up in a predominantly white setting and attended similar schools as “not black enough.” ...Our concept of black experience has been too narrow and constricting.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
