[78-L] MELOJAZZ USA label inquiry

[Thomas Stern]

Thanks HAN!

I am interested in this label as it issues Moses Asch recordings.

Does anyone know anything about the label:
  who ran the label
  whether it dealt directly with Asch, or through other licensees such as Tempo or Melodisc ?

Below is a list of the issues I know of.  Hope others can be added.
Thanks!
Best wishes, Thomas.

I have a few images of Melojazz labels. Evidently French.
They are 6024 (JATP) and some in range 7001-7022 by Bechet, JATP, JJ.Johnson (Tea Pot etc), 
Tatum (from Asch), Josh White.
