Received a bunch of cylinders from eBay some time back, 10 of 12 were smashed to bits, but the wrappings were nice original. The 2 remaining cylinders appear to be in very nice condition, though almost completely lacking luster. There were a couple brown wax cylinders in the smashed group. I received a full refund and I got to keep what was left.
Each of them came with original Edison record slips, 2 different varieties - 1 dated July 1902 and the other dated July 1903. Pictures of the front and back of each variety are attached.

Re: Edison Record Slips c.1902-1903
Nice record slips. These are the icing on the cake to complete a cylinder with original box and lid. Too bad your cylinders got smashed to bits. I never buy wax cylinders to be shipped. To many times they break in shipment, no matter how careful they are packed.
