China National Light Industrial Products Import and Export Corporation

China National Light Industrial Products Import and Export Corporation
China National Light Industrial Products Import and Export Corporation, Tianjin Stationery and Sport, (founded in 1953 and currently based in Tianjin), started making Ukuleles branded Parrot in the 1950's or 60's.

I know this is the maker because they registered the trademark Parrot in a Harp or Lyre and made in China underneath, that is in the sound hole of every Parrot Ukulele.

I have seen the registration was renewed in 1981 and is still current, but the firm is now a state owned export facilitator and only deals with products made by others.
