About This Item
Signed contract stenciled New York City 8 1/2" x 11" with the National Association of Recording Artists who had sought since June 1930 to protect their rights from the pirated wax recordings made from radio broadcasts. Bing Crosby, Paul Whiteman, and others joined the cause early, Cugat joining in 1935 but it was not until July 1939 that they won their case allowing artists to maintain control over mechanically reproduced music.
