Purdue Glee Club - Albert P. Stewart, Conductor - RCA Special Publication (1950s?)

Being married to a Boilermaker, I'm pretty adept at spotting Purdue items with their various logos but these things are few and far between 'round our neck o' the woods.

In the last few days, I have been straightening up the garage a bit in preparation for the hurricane. Imagine my surprise when I found this 78 as I was stacking crates of records.

I couldn't find any recording dates for these sides but I did find the history of Purdue's Musical Organizations.

This record was apparently a gift of some sort (intended for whom?) from Miles Laboratories, Inc., which was based out of Elkhart, Indiana and Bauer & Black, which may have been in Chicago at the time.

If anyone has any information related to this record, please feel free to comment below.

  4. I just found a “Varsity Glee Club of Purdue University Presents Program 3” record that is autographed by Al Stewart. Saw two of his grandchildren on here so wanted to reach out.
