Allen, the kind of cylinder it is I have only heard of one other example, It could be any company working on a celluloid cylinder, as it had no title or number on it, there was no printed title end,it was the woodflour, smooth bore core, it was brown celluloid, much the same color as brown wax, -------------- Thx. This does remind me of another early company, in Chicago (pre-USE), called The Indestructible Phonograph Record Co., in which Varian Harris was a member (w Edmund Balm). Their original intent was to market collapsible celluloid shells, sometimes in cereal boxes, and make them playable by inserting a core afterwards, sometimes of brown 'wax.'
