Lincoln Records, a budget label of Cameo Records, was started in 1923. The majority of material on Lincoln was dance music by bands put together from New York musicians. Some of the Lincoln records were made from Cameo masters, often using pseudonyms for the recording artists. In 1929, the Cameo Record Corporation and its subsidiaries, became part of the original merger of record labels that formed the American Record Corporation. Lincoln was discontinued in 1930.
