International Artists Records

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not related to the 1960s Houston, Texas indie label International Artists. Unreferenced ever since it was created by an owner of the company in 2013. Searches of the usual Google types, EBSCO, Gale, HighBeam, JSTOR, newspapers.com, and ProQuest found a single one-sentence mention. Does not meet WP:GNG.

 * Delete -- unreferenced and promotional. K.e.coffman (talk) 18:46, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - I would have thought, collecting classical on vinyl as I do, that a label producing classical music in the USA since 1956 would have shown up sometime, but I've never ever never seen it. I can't find anything but directory listings for references.  Must be distributed very locally.  Does not appear to meet any definition of notability.   78.26   (spin me / revolutions) 21:04, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete As a record label, coverage of it is virtually non-existent—it gets a mention here in a local NYC magazine from 1975 and the main person behind it, Mark Andersen, is covered in this article in a local newspaper for Lumberton, North Carolina. There are a couple of very obscure holdings listed in WorldCat, and ...er.. that's it. Voceditenore (talk) 10:38, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
