The Lambert Company was incorporated on 3/5/1900, with capital of $300,000, with its principal business being given as "manufacturing advertising novelties." By 5/23/1900, 2000-3000 white celluloid cylinders had been made. By 3/28/1901, 75,000 cylinders had been sold. The one-piece pink celluloid cylinders were introduced in February 1902. There were also brown and orange cylinders made. (Earlier cylinders were of brown wax.)
