Radio-Keith-Orpheum Corporation [RKO] was formed from Film Booking Offices of America, Incorporated [FBO]. Substantial FBO stock was purchased by RCA in January 1928. RCA then purchased control from Kennedy [?] (and others?) of FBO and the Keith-Albee-Orpheum theater circuit in October 1928 and formed RKO. See also RKO Distributing Corporation.
