It's really the HMV logo. It was also used by RCA, but it was HMV's first, and when RCA started using it, HMV went to the silhouette, which this one is.

This Trademark is also the trademark for the British music & entertainment company HMV who now display Nipper in silhouette. RCA Victor produced many radio-phonographs and also created RCA Photophone, a sound-on-film system for sound films that competed with William Fox's sound-on-film Movietone and Warner Bros.' sound-on-disc Vitaphone.
