I found the following addresses in advertisements in the September 1954
Schwann catalogue:
Heritage records -- Heritage Productions Corp., 17 E. 48th St., New York
17, N.Y.
Concert Hall -- Concert Hall Society, Inc., 45 Columbus Ave., New York
23. N.Y.
I haven't looked further, at later sources.

"etc."? ... are addresses found in books acceptable resources? It is
curious that someone should inadvertently inquire about the results of my
next project, gathering together in one place, all Record Company addresses
past and present found in the books in my library.
You don't mention where in the U.S. this Heritage Records is, but
I've found three entries which may or may not match the Label in
question. None of the three mention Concert Hall, which I have not found
listed in any of the books I've indexed so far. Does this help, or is this
a completely different Heritage Records? Sandberg notes, "bluegrass and
old-time" for this Heritage, which doesn't match the recorded content
mentioned in this thread.

PS: What pre-1960 books list addresses for many Labels? 1960 is the oldest
book I have with addresses.
PPS: Checking further, Goldmine's 2000-2007 Independent Label Directories
list another one: Heritage Records and Music Company, 2417 Welsh Rd., Suite
227, Philadelphia, PA 19116 -- (215) 676-7377,
http://www.phillysoldies.com/ - http://www.repsmusicgroup.com/ - "'50s and
'60s rock 'n' roll and doo-wop" ... no listing for Concert Hall in Goldmine
either.
