Sorry I got that date wrong- I don't know where my brain was at.OrthoSean wrote:The Bryan and Taft Edison cylinders were all made in 1908, Bryan made 10 and Taft 12. They're all compiled on the great Archeophone release called "Debate '08". Yours truly just picked up a mint (and it really is MINT) copy of Bryan's "Imperialism" on Gold Molded 9920. It was listed on eBay by a seller who didn't photo the cylinder, just a generic "box shot" with a $30 buy it now, describing it as excellent, but "possibly with scratches". I took a chance, figuring the buyer protection would cover me if it turned out to be junk. It looks like it's never been out of the box. I'm pleased!estott wrote:Bryan made a few cylinders, I've got a copy of "The Labor Question" on an Edison Gold Molded. Taft also did a series around the same time- 1912. Bryan's Gennett discs turn up on occasion, sometimes with other labels such as Silvertone.

Sounds as if you got an excellent deal.
