[78-L] what are Concertone Records?

[David Lennick]

An Eli Oberstein masterpiece..in fact Masterpiece was another label issuing 
this same material, lots of it from Varsity and Royale and his other nefarious 
sources. I have some of the Jan Peerce sides on Concertone..not sure if the 
Marian Andersons came out on that label as well but it's possible.
