IS this the early incarnation of Trojan (on 78)?

Post by jordandance »

Found a wack of Jamaican 78's today (some ska!) and was wondering if this was an early Trojan label (very similar in font/colour to the Kalypso label 78's):

Duke 'The Trojan' Reid used that label in Jamaica a long long time ago...

Night Food was in there too, so either way i guess I happened upon Duke Reid's first production if this is true.
