Durium
Products
Incorporated
|
New catalog system |
|
After this session a lot of alterations were made. The Durium Products
Corporation had failed; the Durium Products Incorporated had started. DURIUM
introduced the new 5-minutes Hit of the week record (The first 5-minutes Hit of
the week record was HOW 1156 ). Starting with HOW 1160 the colour of the Durium
surface became dark-brown and the manufacturer's identification changed. A new
catalog system was introduced starting in the 3rd week of September 1931 using
month letters and week numbers (like J (=September 1931)).

DURIUM JUNIOR N 25 |
 |
|
This little 4” record is a
cheap dub of part of HOW J2 with a conspicuous fade-in and face-out. Because
it fits into the DURIUM JUNIOR range it is listed here too. // * There has been
some discussion about the person of Jack Parker and J. Donald Parker. It seems
that the name belongs to one and the same person
