1940's pressing plant - King records

A spot for keeping track of especially cool (informative, fun) videos, photos, scans and other links about record cutting. (You can post them in other sections. Eventually they may end up here.) NOTE: Please put *Circuits, Schematics and Manuals* in the section with that name.

That is sweet. Some of my favorite records of all time were on King! James Brown, The Stanley Brothers, Moon Mullican and many more. Cincinnati, Ohio....

There's a book about King and Sid Nathan. Not well written but full of info.
