SHV

Státní hudební vydavatelství (State Music Publishers), Czechoslovak company, publisher of recorded and printed music. Separated from the music division of Státní nakladatelství krásné literatury, hudby a umění (SNKLHU) in 1961. Parent company of the Supraphon label until 1968. Note: to be used as label only if there is no mention of “Supraphon” (or “Gramofonový Klub”) at all. Can be used as a record company credit, e.g. if mentioned in liner notes, or if a release is housed in a preprinted neutral sleeve with the “SHV” logotype.
