Herwin Records was a mail-order record label founded in 1925 by two brothers, Herbert and Edwin Schiele in St. Louis, Missouri. The name of the label comes from their first names (HERbert and EdWIN).[1][2]
Herwin sold budget jazz, blues, and old-time music discs that were pressed by Gennett and Paramount.[3] The records were advertised in farming magazines and sold through the mail.[2] The catalogue included Charley Patton, Chubby Parker, and Ernest Stoneman.[1]
Herwin closed in 1930 when it was bought by the Wisconsin Chair Company, the owner of Paramount. A second Herwin Records was started in 1971 by Bernard Klatzko, a collector who reissued rare, early-jazz discs.[2]
