DESCRIPTION
The H. Royer Smith Company was founded in 1907 at 10th and Walnut Sts., Philadelphia. In March 1930 it began publishing "Disques" a small review magazine featuring articles and reviews by Lawrence Gilmore, Edward C. Smith, Peter Hugh Reed, Richard Gilbert, Issac Goldberg, Nicolas Slonimsky, Herbert Peyser, David Ewen, R.D. Darrell, Laurence Powell, Henry Cowell and Daniel Gregory Mason, among others. Included in these issues were articles about Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bax, Delius, Toscanini, Elgar, Prokofiev, Cowell, Karl Muck, Furtwängler, and more. Reviews covered all of the domestic releases as well as many "imports" (mostly HMV, Polydor, Odeon, British Columbia, etc.) Disques ceased publication during the Great Depression (February 1933) and was replaced by a smaller publication "The New Records", a stripped-down version which featured an editorial (unsigned, but presumably by H. Royer Smith) and 15-20 pages of record reviews by staff (signed with initials only or pseudonymously) and local contributors, some of who were customers. The New Records which in later years was published by Royer's son H. Royer Smith, Jr., ceased publication in the late 1970's when the business was sold to a long-time customer.
