I forgot about this disc
Years ago I put up 1 spot from this disc on my personal web page, but that's pretty much it. recently, I decided to dig out the disc and do a proper posting
The company goes back almost a century as this paragraph on wikipedia explains:
In 1921, Lester Haft filed a patent for a system to interconnect multiple strings. In late 1925, Joseph Bloch and Albert Sadacca organized a trade association of 15 of Haft patent licensees, all small manufacturers, including C. D. Wood. Block named the trade group National Outfit Manufacturer's Association, or N. O. M. A., and later, simply NOMA. By joining together, the companies could consolidate purchasing and gain other efficiencies to improve their competitiveness. This was successful for the 1925 and 1926 seasons, and by the end of 1926, the companies agreed to formally merge into a single manufacturer bearing the NOMA name. NOMA branded light outfits were sold starting in the 1927 season
This campaign is believed to be from the 1940s, possibly the late 1940s as other discs that I found many years ago with this one, were dated around that time, but as there is nothing on the label, I cannot confirm.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Looks cool, I'll give it a listen. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
