Stinson Records was an American record label formed by Herbert Harris and Irving Prosky in 1939 initially to market in the US recordings made in the Soviet Union. Between the 1940s and 1960s it mainly issued recordings of American folk and blues musicians including Woody Guthrie and Josh White. In 1943 Stinson established a financial partnership with the newly-established Asch Records set up by Moe Asch The two labels Folkways and Stinson then operated separately and to some degree in competition although an arrangement seems to have been reached under which they shared out recordings by some of the artists they had recorded under their joint arrangement most notably Woody Guthrie with Asch's Folkways label issuing most of Guthrie's topical and political songs while the Stinson label issued most of his folk and country songs. with thanks to Wikipedia.

"Like only a few others he John Parrott arrived in California already rich and successful. He had traded in hides and tallow in Mexico long before the gold rush. He had been named US Consul at Mazatlan in 1838. This honorary position brought prestige but it did not include any pay. " from San Mateo County Historical Society While Parrott was given the respect that his wealth and position commanded he was not without his flaws. It was known that he had fathered at least two children by different Mexican women. Some of his business dealings in those early days would have been called smuggling today. Nevertheless when he arrived in San Francisco Parrott was already established as a respectable and influential man. He became a banker and accumulated real estate in San Francisco and elsewhere. He invested in many different successful business ventures. He had originally been from The South and he became a typical southern conservative businessman. Unlike some other San Franciscans of the time Parrott never revealed the extent of his wealth so it was rumored that he was richer than many of the others."; 236p. pages; Pictured 3/8/23 .
