    Description

    Here is a rarity, a four minute cylinder made by Lakeside!  This was the name of cylinders from catalog retailer Montgomery, Ward and Company (competition to Sears, Roebuck).  I assume Columbia produced cylinders for them.  This is #1437, I think, circa 1913(?).  As you can see, part of the top has been "nibbled" away.  It is a ragtime medley featuring trumpet playing, the last 45 seconds or so is the famous Irving Berlin song "Alexander's Ragtime Band", which was written in 1911.
    The cylinder plays loud and quite well with moderate surface noise, you will be pleased.  I will also supply the cylinder box shows in the pictures.  I bet you don't have this in your collection, reasonable buy it now price given what it is, go for it!!
    Shipping to USA addresses only.  .50 media mail postage and handling fee.  Please pay within 24 hours of purchase and I will leave you positive feedback when I ship the cylinder, your positive feedback appreciated!  See my store for many more cylinder records, I will combine shipping if you buy more than one, and thanks for looking!!
