Allied Wholesale Co Of P.R.

Puerto Rican record company, distributor for Rumba Records and other labels in Puerto Rico. Founded by Argentine businessmen Charles M. Tarrab and Alberto Dircie in 1967. Closed it doors in 1980. A Rumba Records release distributed by Allied Wholesale was typically pressed by Puerto Rico Record & Mfg, Co, Inc.. These releases can be identified by their minimal labels - one-color background, label name in an italic serif type, artist credits and track titles in a condensed version of the Copperplate Gothic type. See uploaded label photo for an example.
