Hello, to finish the rest of my Chinese collection, I would like to purchase both;

Edison Gold Moulded Chinese Cylinder (marketed as Edison Chinese Cylinder)
and
Edison Amberol Chinese Cylinder (marketed as Edison Amberol Cylinder (in Mandarin))

If anyone has any they would be willing to sell, please let me know. I am aware that the Gold Moulded ones are more common (and less pricey than their Amberol counterparts).

I have an excellent Edison 2 minute cylinder 12767 U si wo (Chinese) in original box with top. Are you interested? If so, what are you offering?

Hey, Rick. I am interested definitely, however, I'm not really sure what the price for Chinese cylinders are generally.

Edison Gold-Moulded Chinese cylinders are extremely sought after. The few specimen on eBay sold between 500 and 1000 USD. I can hardly imagine what a Chinese Amberol cylinder would cost.
