William Messer founded the Indestructible Record Company in Albany, New York, 1906. The company produced celluloid cylinder records until 1922. Columbia Records distributed the Indestructible Record Company’s cylinders from 1908 to 1912. Indestructible continued to sell cylinders independently and through Sears-Roebuck Company and Montgomery Wars stores. The company was re-organized as the Federal Record Corporation in 1917 and started making disc records under the Federal label. Federal stopped production in 1925.
