International Award Series

The International Award Series was a budget record label and a successor to Bravo!, operating as a division of the K.M. (Keel Manufacturing) Corporation, which was the manufacturing arm of Pickwick International. Active from 1960, the label continued Pickwick's strategy of releasing low-cost "sound-alike" albums and reissues. Many of the early International Award albums were reissues of recordings that had previously been released on the Bravo! label, often with the same artwork and catalog numbers. The label was eventually phased out in the mid-1960s, with its material being reissued on another Pickwick subsidiary, the Grand Prix Series.
