[78-L] Speaking of Polkas - the Dana label

[Malcolm Rockwell]

Gart's ARLD (American Record Label Directory) has a good listing for 
this label. Looks like it was in business 1947 - 1959, and they did make 
LPs. Don't know about 45s, though, Gert does not specify Owner was 
Walter Dana, business addresses mostly in NYC.
