Record Corporation Of America

US record company.
[b]Do not confuse with the company name for RCA: [l=Radio Corporation Of America][/b]

Company founded in 1950 by former Radio Corporation of America executive [a=Eli Oberstein] to combine the operations of many smaller labels he owned, such as [l=Varsity], [l=Allegro (2)], and [l=Rondo (2)], into one corporate entity. The name was probably deliberately chosen to create confusion with his former employer's name. In fact, Oberstein liked to refer to his Record Corporation Of America publicly as "RCA". He sold most of this company, with the exception of the [l=Rondo (2)] label, in the late 1950s to [l=Pickwick Sales Corp.]
