Brunswick Records

["Art Shifrin" <goldens2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone,

I'm curious about some early basic history of Brunswick Records.

1.  Did Brunswick start their record business from scratch, or buy an
existing concern, & then change to their name?

2.   In what year were Brunswick records sold to the public?

3.   Was Vocalion always a Brunswick label, or had it been acquired by them?
       If acquired, then when did the label first appear & when was it
acquired?

4.   Why was ownership of the catalog split in 1931?

Thanks
Shiffy
