Edison Christmas Cylinders for sale

Post by ColoradoPhonograf »

I have two cylinders for sale:

The first is "Oh Holy Night-Christmas song" Edison Purple amberol #29040 by Frieda Hempel in E condition. The cylinder fits on the mandrel properly and has no splits or plaster loss. Comes in an Edison blue amberol box but no lid. Price is $65. plus shipping Sold

The second is "Christmas at Sea" Edison blue Amberol # 23150 by N.M band & Male Quar. recorded in Nov.1913. It is in VG + condition with one small split on the end but not into the grooves, a couple of small plaster chips inside. An interesting cylinder which describes the homesick sailor away from home with a medley of songs and ends with "Auld Lang Syne".A link to the description of the cylinder can be viewed at:

In 20 years of collecting I have never seen or have heard of this cylinder being offered for sale before. I have placed a price of $120. on it plus shipping.

If interested please contact me through a private message through this forum. Thank you,
