Tops Records was a giant in the budget record label world in the 1950s. Tops originally entered the market as a seller of used jukebox records, moving quickly to issuing their own records containing covers of the day's top-charting hits. After success with cover records, they moved on to releasing full albums of various genres to fill the music interests of the mass market. But lesser know is the Tops children's record lines, Tops For Tots, and similar products, including some children's records on their main Tops Record line series.
