The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Folks,

I am looking for several Indestructible 2-minute cylinders that are Marches. I have a couple but need several more. If you have any of these, please contact me directly at [email protected].

Thank you.

Shawn

What cylinders are you looking for?

Richard,

I so appreciat your response!! Thank you.

I am looking specifically for 2 minute indestructibles - the ones with the metal rings on the inside, not Lakeside or Everlasting, that are Marches titles. I have a couple, but need several more.

Thank you!!

There is a good selection of Indestructible cylinders on: 4-4time.com Just put in Indestructible in the search and over a hundred in stock. Here is the link: https://4-4time.com/product-category/cy ... structible

What is the sound quality of Indestructibles compared to Edison? Under the Wikipedia article Phonograph Cylinders there is a 2 minute recording of Auld Lang Syne. It sounds incredible -- more bass than I would expect and almost no hiss. But I wonder if the recording has been remastered somehow.

2 min Indestructibles generally sound much better than 2 min Edisons AND don't break if dropped...
