Decided to sell the cylinder. Al Fields & His Assassinators in E- condition. Price is $600 or OBO includes shipping in USA. This is less than ½ of what one sold on Ebay although it was Mint condition several months ago. If you have some thing in trade that might be a possible deal. Any questions feel free to ask. Not original OBT can furnish a box but won't have the original lid. No chips or splits at end of cylinder.

An interesting aspect about this particular cylinder is the misspelling on the title end as: "AL FIELDS & HIS ASSASSINATORS". No such band recorded on Edison. The cylinder was obviously recorded by Arthur Fields & His Assassinators and the title end should have indicated "A. FIELDS & HIS ASSASSINATORS".
I truly enjoy these little mistakes on titles and early recordings that were obviously not caught before public release. It's a great recording and I would be interested this (mostly for the misspelling!) if I didn't already own a copy of it on Edison DD.
