EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a unique and innovative approach to political campaigning in 1911, as William Jennings Bryan records his speeches on the phonograph (gramophone) for broadcast in theatres. In an era where a political candidate couldn't physically be everywhere at once, Bryan found a way to reach the masses with his message through this cutting-edge technology.
With admission free to these theatre broadcasts, Bryan was able to connect with voters across the country in a way that had never been done before. This forward-thinking strategy allowed him to engage with audiences on a larger scale and make his voice heard in an impactful way during the election season.
As we look back on this historical moment in politics, it is clear that Bryan was ahead of his time in utilizing new technologies to campaign effectively. His use of the phonograph not only showcased his creativity and resourcefulness but also demonstrated his commitment to reaching as many people as possible with his platform.
This print serves as a reminder of the power of innovation and adaptability in politics, showing us that even over a century ago, candidates were finding ways to connect with voters in meaningful and memorable ways.
