This circa 1902 cylinder - "The Dance of Sing Ling Foo", sung by Arthur Collins is a bit of fun! These "Indestructible" (brand) cylinders sound really good - loud and clear. What a pity all of Edison's two minute cylinders weren't indestructible (as opposed to self-destructing!).
Played on an Edison "Home" phonograph with 2/4 minute attachment.
I had never heardthis Collins recording before- Thaks so much for posting!

Thanks for sharing "What a pity all of Edison's two minute cylinders weren't indestructible (as opposed to self-destructing!)" That made me laugh!
