{"value"=>"<p>With the birth of the commercial recording industry in the 1890s, record companies began issuing catalogs, brochures, and other print advertising of their recordings. Initially, these included simple lists of titles, artists, and publisher's numbers of recordings. Eventually, the materials came to include posters, fliers, detailed monthly supplements, press releases, and numerical catalogs listing all recordings released to date by a company.</p>"}

{"value"=>"<p>The Record Company Catalogs and Ephemera Collection is a collection compiled first by the Music Division of the New York Public Library, and, starting in 1965, by the Rodgers and Hammerstein Archives of Recorded Sound. Beginning in the 1930s, record store owners, record companies, and private collectors donated record company catalogs, press releases, fliers, posters, and other materials that marketed sound recordings. Library staffs gradually added to this collection between the 1930s and the 2000s.</p>"}
- arrangement

{"value"=>"<p>The collection is arranged alphabetically by record company. In cases where multiple record companies share the same name, companies are listed in order of city. For record companies spanning multiple countries, materials are arranged alphabetically by country, region, or language, depending on what is printed on the catalog. For large record companies, materials are arranged into several standard subseries: Catalogs, Press Releases, Special Lists, and Supplements, which is how most of the items were arranged when donated by record companies and distributors.</p>", "supress_display"=>true}
