[78-L] Columbia sublabels [was MGM-Supertone connection?]

[Han Enderman]

Publix 1047-P is by THE PARAMOUNTEERS.
This name wasn't used, of course, on M-G-M.
Label image is not good, but mx of Paintings might be 148663. What is this?

One thing is not clear to me, concerning these movie theatres.
Sutton-Nauck state (ARLC p130) that this M-G-M label was mfd by Columbia 
"for theater lobby sales at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film showings.... The records
plugged songs from M-G-M films...".
Publix was (p172) "for sale in Publix Theater lobbies at Paramount Pictures showings".
Publix label says 'Painting The Clouds With Sunshine' is from The Gold Diggers of Broadway.
Was this film shown in both movie theatre chains?
Publix label logo mentions "Paramount Pictures"; M-G-M labels mention Loew's Theatres.
Many M-G-Ms are by "The Capitolians, Capitol Theatre, N.Y.C."

To repeat (for the third time, actually)..I have 1047-P on both Publix and Metro Goldwyn Mayer 
and both are "Tiptoe Thru the Tulips" b/w "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine", 
as The Capitolians on Metro and don't know on Publix since the disc is buried away. 
On Harmony it's by the Golden Gate Orchestra. All the same masters. All horrible sounding acousticals
(oddly enough, I do have an electrical recording by the same forces of the same songs, on probably a Plaza label). 
Not listed in Rust under California Ramblers, for some reason, so I can never remember the name 
except when I run across the disc. And it doesn't like being run across.
