Eli Oberstein

The Encyclopedic Guide To 78RPM Party Records

WHIZ
1950's successor to Star Garter, the source of the 1947 copyright. Discs are unnumbered but display SG-prefixed numbers in runoff which are Star Garter control numbers applied to dubs of earlier recordings. These include Hollywood Hot Shots material as well as John Ryan and Top Hat Records. These last would indicate a connection with Eli Oberstein. Eccentric groove is typical of West Coast products imitating Radio Recorders. Rose red label with gold print includes material from Bang.
