Most of these post-WWII "indie" labels didn't issue "catalogs" as such; 
however
they did often send out lists of their new releases to radio stations. In 
most cases
these are/were long since discarded...but one can sometimes find bunches of
those lists which were kept (often accidentally) by the stations. Quite a 
few
years ago, I picked up a fairly large stack (about 1/4") of these documents
at an "old paper" show in Toronto. I probably still have it...but finding it
would be a horse of a different question...?!

Check your local radio stations...and/or folks who used to work for 
them...?!
