FISKANA
Personal label of Dwight FISKE, on which he released two sides recorded at Byers Studio in 1933, the remainder at RCA in 1933-6 and HMV. Labels are green or black with gold print. Numbers are Victor 12-inch popular series catalog numbers but are not known to have been released on that label. Range is scattered between 36013 and 36187. Later pressings substitute a sickly green print and have Victor's "VE" burnished from the runouts. In 1943 RCA destroyed the original metal parts. Later, Gala dubs replaced the Fiskana issues.
