FOR SALE: Passing Of Circus Parade-Collins-Brown Wax - $40

Post by FellowCollector »

For your consideration is a hard to find early Columbia Brown Wax cylinder, "The Passing Of A Circus Parade" by Arthur Collins and Gilbert Girard. This is a circa 1902 Columbia brown wax cylinder.

The surface has some typical spots of mold that result in intermittent noise during play but the cylinder was recorded rather robustly so the Collins/Girard dialog and accompanying sound effects exceed the spotty surface noise and make for an enjoyable listen. Speaking of sound effects there are some "interesting" ones on the cylinder including a lion and steam calliope!

So...if you're tolerant of a little intermittent surface noise on an otherwise nice brown wax cylinder that provides a fun listen then this cylinder may be for you.

An original Columbia cylinder box and top will be included (as pictured). USPS Media Mail shipping cost will be added based on your address. Payment by PayPal friends option is preferred.

Thanks,

Doug
