COMMENTS
|
In 1968, as part of a
corporate restructuring of Capitol and EMI, Capitol Records,
Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of a new entity known
as Capitol Industries, Inc.
The decision was made to identify the new arrangement on
subsequent Capitol releases. This required the reprinting of
45 and album labels to reflect the new ownership.
For single releases, the perimeter print was changed to
“MFD. BY CAPITOL RECORDS, INC., A SUBSIDIARY OF CAPITOL
INDUSTRIES, INC., U.S.A.”
There are four basic variations of the subsidiary
swirls:
(1) Keystone labels with black perimeter print (Scranton)
(2) Keystone labels with white perimeter print (Scranton)
(3) Bert-Co labels with white perimeter print (Los Angeles)
(4) Small print labels with white perimeter print (usually
Los Angeles)
The black perimeter print was used on labels printed from
mid-August 1968 through mid-October 1968, at which time
white perimeter print was used through April 1969.
