What a great label. This 78 from Japan Victor Company is the title song Alice in Wonderland. The custom label is really cool, and not very common from what I've seen in general for vintage Disney records; most record companies just used generic labels. Flip side of this is from Cinderella.
Interesting to note that the Japanese entity of RCA Victor later left records entirely and moved solely into electronics (JVC is Japan Victor Company), although in Japan they still use the Nipper logo.
UPDATE: Take a listen!

That's not true. There's still a "Victor Company of Japan" that deals in both electronics and music under separate subsidiaries. I have a CD a friend sent me that was released under the "Victor" label.
