Profile:

Record label, specializing in music and story records geared towards children.
The label was created by brothers Daniel and Louis Kasen in 1948.

Originally a plastics manufacturing company, (Synthetic Plastics Company) that was founded in 1928, technological advances allowed the company to expand its repertoire to include products such as dice, poker chips, and other plastic-molded products.
Following World War II, Daniel Kasen discovered that his presses could be adapted to make phonograph records.

Peter Pan Records was spun off into its own entity, Peter Pan Industries, from the 1970s on.
Due to a decline in the sales of children's music, in the early 1980s, Peter Pan Industries branched into music releases not aimed at the children's market--such as releases from boogie/funk artists such as Maxine Singleton & Wandra.

During this time, the company also changed its name to PPI Entertainment of Newark, New Jersey, and established new label divisions and imprints, including Rohit International Records, a "budget" label that specialized in reggae.

PPI Entertainment Group changed its name yet again in the year 2004 to Inspired Studios, and is headed by Daniel’s son, Donald M. Kasen.

    Another record from childhood that I'm trying to find... The story of “Pinocchio”.

    Geppetto brings home a piece of (what he describes as) enchanted wood and begins to carve it into the shape of a little puppet boy. The wood (somehow) talks while this is happening. “Stop it. Stop it! Stop cutting me up! Now you’re tickling me, hah-hah-hah-hah!” The voice was quite bizarre and comical, at one point chanting “Catch me, catch me, if you can. I can run faster than anyone can.”

    At the end, when he’s turned into a real boy he sings…

    “Oh, look at me
    Oh, look at me
    I’m a real live boy
    Gee, I’m happy
    Gosh, oh gee
    I’m a real live boy”

    (CHORUS: “He’s a real live boy!”)

      Does this sound familiar to anyone...

      "One morning a little girl named Alice was making daisy chains in her garden when suddenly a little white rabbit with a green umbrella ran past her... RABBIT: "Oh, my ears and whiskers, I mustn't be late. I mustn't be late!”

      (He then began to sing)
      “I’m a silly little rabbit from
      Won-der-land
      I’ve got a green umbrella
      and a ma-gic fan
      I’d like to stay
      and play with you
      But I’ve got things
      That I must do
      Hi-pity hop
      Hi-pity hop
      I’m off to won-der-land Hee hee hee hee…”

      And away ran the little white rabbit. Alice notice that the rabbit dropped his fan. Alice picked up the fan and started to fan herself. With each swish of the fan she grew smaller (the sound of a slide whistle) and smaller (the sound of a slide whistle) and smaller (the sound of a slide whistle).

          A word of warning: I had one of these very old looking red 7"s loose on a shelf, and it reacted with a plastic transparent record envelope it was up against, causing significant discoloration and distortion, within probably just a few years or less.o
