Imperial label of the red type used in the early 1930s. This particular issue is an example of a record pressed for export, in this case to Sweden.

The second Imperial Records was a United Kingdom based label which went into business in 1920. Imperial was owned by The Crystalate Gramophone Record Manufacturing Company Ltd. of Tonbridge, Kent, England. The company's main recording studio was in London. Most Imperial issues were recorded by the company, but some issues from masters leased from other companies in Continental Europe and from the USA's Banner Records also appeared on Imperial. Most Imperial recordings were of popular songs, music hall tunes, and dance music of the time. The label went out of business in February of 1934.
