Arrow

Home page  Introduction  Label Index  Musicians  Sound Files
An early British label pressed by the Carl Lindstrom group using Beka masters (often of an earlier vintage), Arrow existed from 1913 up to about 1916.
The catalogue series was numbered A1 upwards to about A224. The label was either Red or Yellow (as shown); the earlier being red, the later being yellow (I don't know when the colour changed).

 

This is a first attempt at a listing. Please e-mail me if you can help me fill in the gaps; you can see that I have very little information so far.
