    Wax Cylinder- please read.
    Up for sale is an antique early 1900's Edison Records 5" diameter wax cylinder. It is 4.25" high. These are very rare. There is a hand written number on the top that says "C 7871". I can't gauranty what is exactly on the cylinder recording.
    There are many spots on the playing surface of the cylinder so it may not play. You should judge the condition based upon looking at the images I provided. I have not tested this.
    The cardboard container is in very good shape considering its age. A portion of the inside of the top of the lid was re-enforced at some point with a little glue.
    Please ask any questions before buying, not after.
    This item must be carefully packed to prevent the damage.
    Please Note:
    If you have any questions, please ask before bidding/buying. This is an approx. 120 year old antique so I am not providing any warranty. It is being sold AS-IS with no returns.
    Thank you.
