 Slow Poke, it turns out, is old enough to be on the first Cameo label. Surprisingly, for a song that was a big hit for the Mills Brothers, Be My Life's Companion didn't want to show up on Google. I know it has to be there somewhere, though.

I agree with Jock Girl that the disc looks like a multi-track knock-off cover Ep, which was a distinctly late 40-s-1950's phenomenon as seen on Tops, Big 18 Hit, Big 4, and others. If you are student of these, you may want to check out the Blue Ribbon entry for a C&W version.

Maybe it is. in fact, a third completely unrelated iteration of the Cameo name.

 This is the only double-track Cameo I have ever seen. There is another disc that is supposed to fill the 922 slot in the 1920's Cameo label's regular issue series. This label is not a really good match for either the 1920's Cameo or the 1950's Cameo based in Philadelphia. At least one version of the 1920's Cameo label had a left-facing cameo in the design, the 1950's didn't. The typeface is modernish, but not too blatantly so. The artists involved are not associated with either label's output to my knowledge. Slow Poke and Be My Life's Companion may be too recent to be from the 1920's Cameo. If so, this would probably be better placed under the Philadelphia Cameo list.

 This is not the same as the Cameo (Parkway) label of the late 1950s.

It may not be the same as the earlier Cameo label of started in the 1920s.

This is an EP of knock-off cover versions. Based on the tracks it would be from late 1951 or early 1952.
