Edison 5000‑Series Cylinder #5136 – “Thanks for the Buggy Ride” by Oliver’s Jazz Band (Rare Late‑Era Record)

This is an exceptional offering from the Edison 5000‑Series, the late‑era group of cylinders prized by collectors for their scarcity and historically low production runs. Featured here is Cylinder #5136, titled “Thanks for the Buggy Ride,” performed by Oliver’s Jazz Band—a spirited, upbeat selection that captures the lively energy of early American dance and jazz ensembles.

The cylinder itself is in good condition, with a clean playing surface and intact rim markings. Because the 5000‑series was produced toward the end of Edison’s cylinder era, far fewer examples were manufactured and even fewer survive today. These later numbers are consistently harder to locate, making them a standout addition for advanced collectors seeking rare catalog entries.

This listing uses a stock photo, but the actual cylinder presents well and has been carefully inspected. A charming, historically resonant recording—and a genuinely hard‑to‑find Edison 5000‑series cylinder worthy of any curated phonograph collection.
