WANTED: Edison Bell Indestructible Cylinder Box - Still Searching

Post by john9ten »

Hello all

I recently purchased a cylinder advertised as a Black Lambert. Imagine my confusion when it was announced "Edison Bell Record"! Turns out Lambert made cylinders for Edison Bell and for the indestructible language course records as well. So I did some research through a box collector friend, and rather than a Lambert box I am looking for the Edison Bell Indestructible box, which is what this record should come in. I have uploaded a photo of the box I seek. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

I may have a duplicate of this - will have to check tomorrow night if you haven't found one already.

The box shown above is actually for the Pink and brown Edison-Bell celluloid records.
The black celluloid Edison-Bell records came in the "Ebony" box pictured below.

I've seen that box, I had forgotten about it. I just bought the other one, so now I need to find this box and get a brown EB cylinder...Oh well! Thanks!

How do I edit this post and show that I found it? I hate this new format, all the controls seem to be gone. I read the FAQs and they are for the old format.

I don't think you can when there's a post following the one you'd like to edit.
I edited my post yesterday from a drop down menu at the top right of my post, but now there's only the report ! and the quote" there, so it seems I couldn't edit that post again now that you've replied after it?
Yes, The ! & " are now replaced with 3 dots ... For the drop down menu so assume they'll disappear again if you make another post.

I'm not liking this new format much either lol
It no longer shows who made the last post in each category on the forum menu, and it no longer shows how many views each topic has had, and both those functions I used quite regularly.
Oh well, guess we'll get used to it.

I see a pencil now appears next to the icons at the top so you can now edit your older posts.
