For Sale: Eleven Cylinder Records $150

[EarlH]

I don't have a cylinder phonograph anymore, and haven't had one for 10 years or more but I had a gal ask me if I was interested in these records. Diane thinks the Roosevelt record is worth a fortune and I tried to tell her that it is worth something, but not quite what she thinks. Anyway, she thinks it's worth $150 and the rest of the records go with it. I told her that I would list it here and see if there was any interest as I really don't feel like dealing with ebay and you guys know better than me what these things really sell for. I can post some pictures tomorrow after the batteries are re-charged for my camera.

Anyway, it is kind of a nice bunch of records and they all look to be in nice shape I think. I don't see any double grooves or anything like that. BUT I don't have anything to play them on, so this is all visual. The one Maroon box looks like it has a French title lid, but it's a very nice looking box by itself. There's also an empty Busy Bee box that can go with them. I would think $6-$8 would get them wherever they need to go through media mail. There are two 4 minute blue amberol records and the rest are 2-minute Oxford records. Eleven records in all. I'm selling them all together and I don't want to deal with her trying to split them up. I don't mind helping Diane out a little, but she took up enough of my time tonight. Haha!
