In the Edison 2M wax run, there is a "B" prefix operatic series of 70 or so titles that came in custom boxes. These are quite hard to find.

The two cylinders you show are "foreign" (i.e., non-USA) series in foreign boxes. The "Goldguss" box is the standard German Gold Moulded box. The "Standard" box is a very late 2M wax, probably British. (The US version of this box is quite hard to find.)

There is far more opera in the various 4M series, both wax and Blue Amberol.
