That would be a very early Indestructible.... 1907...Something like in the first 30 cylinders released by Indestructible.. It was the 26th cylinder released and it was released in the the early 2nd month of Indestructible Cylinder Production which would be December 1907. November 1907 was the first month of Indestructible Cylinder Production. The top example cylinder pictured above was still using the old Black Lambert tooling...hence the "raised" embossed lettering...unlike soon to be regular Indestructible production like the bottom pictured cylinder underneath it.
