Jeff: I am assuming that these cylinders are wax Edisons. I looked up Edison 2 minute wax cylinders in a current record auction. I found three William Jennings Bryan cylinders listed. They are:
9915 The Labor Question 9919 The Popular Election of Senators 9923 Immortality All three are listed as mold free, in excellent condition, with original boxes and lids. 9915 and 9919 have light scratches and the minimum bid is $200 each. 9923 has no scratches and the minimum bid is $150. This auction house is very reasonable with their minimum bids, so I would assume that the going price on the street would be much higher. Apparently, even if you offered your seller $100 each, you would still be getting a huge bargain! -Phil
