Early Cache Of Records Found

[gramophone78]

Today I discovered a nice group of 11 7" disc's. Five were Berliner and six were early Universal's. Some are sans the name on the front. However, the lease agreement is on the back.One, starts of by stating "another new selection by Universal".
The one I found very interesting is the one that has "Bryan's Speech" on the front. There is no lease agreement on the back or any indication it's from Universal.
Is this a Universal record???.

Wow, what a nice find!

I assume Bryan's Speech is a version of William Jennings Bryan's "Cross of Gold" speech of 1896?
