Why so many label types?
Why are there so many Vee Jay labels? The answer is relatively
simple. Vee Jay did not manufacture their own records. As Beatlemania grew,
more Pressing Plants were asked to produce the records. Here is the list of Pressing
Plants that produced Beatle records for Vee Jay:
American Record Pressing Co.
Monarch Record Manufacturing Co.
Southern Plastics, Inc.
Allentown Record Co.
National Record Corp.
Columbia Records
Silver Plastics
