Hello Ron L, Your memory is correct and evidently long terms as well. Here is
what Allen K wrote 7/27/2005: Hi
Toward the end of Lambert production, the company sold them with plaster
cores. This would be around 1905 since Edison's patent on the tapered cylinder
interior was just expiring then (1888-1905). There is some discussion of this
in PHP. The last (new) title that Lambert introduced occurred in late 1903, and
they just kept repressing them. Highest US # (2") was 1053.
Allen Back to me: The last British ones have a core like the US Everlasting of
Cleveland do, I have one of the British ones with the core. Steve
