Christian Faith Recordings

The Christian Faith label was produced by Alma Records, Inc., founded and owned by Hugh Edwards and his wife beginning approximately in 1953 with a Los Angeles address. The company had begun marketing releases by February 1954. Christian Faith changed their address to Reseda in 1957. Sometime later they relocated to the Northridge neighborhood, but continued to use old label stock indicating the previous address. Christian Faith used a convoluted system for the album catalog numbers, intended to give the impression that their output was significantly greater than fact, to the confusion of discographers. However, by 1961 there were more than 100 albums in the label's then-current offerings. Christian Faith developed a marketing plan in which records were sent to dealers at less than the regular wholesale price if the dealer accepted automatic shipments of new releases, with the dealer retaining the right to send back unsold records for full refund. The label was distributed internationally by Pathway Press. The label was sold to Sing Recording Company in 1967.
