Satellite Sadie

Scope Records

1959



The Scope label was set up in Chicago in 1955 by Archie Levington.


According to Billboard (September 17, 1955)

"Archie Levington , owner of Studio and Midway publishing firms, has set up his own recording company, Scope, which will primarily serve as a showcase for his own tunes. [...]

and :

All Scope disk labels will carry a stroboscopic design with which buyers and dealers can determine the speed accuracy of their turntables."

Scope Records, Houston, Texas, 1962

Similar "stroboscopic design"
on a label also named Scope

Coincidence?
