What are some records on this label, what was it's focus? I've never seen one. I see it advertised with Bethlehem & Federal on those King 45 sleeves, what's up? I'm curious.

    There are two distinct runs of the Queen label. The first one ran in the mid-to-late 40s and issued nearly 75 discs of good jazz (like Slim Gaillard), jump blues and gospel. The second series released saw around fourteen 45s, mostly pop and mild R&B from the early '60s.
