Title

[SM030055], Letter from John Calvin Owen Redington to Thomas Alva Edison, July 22nd, 1879

Editor's Notes

"There is not a man in America or Europe who is talking to as many people about Thos A Edison, electricity & his big inventions as the subscriber." Please send me "any additional thunder that you would like to have put out." [Written on a circular advertising phono, telephone demos & science lecture as church fund-raisers, as "elevating amusements [that] asist in winning mankind away from hurtful ones." Special advertising trick: give short matinee programs to schoolchildren several days ahead, so they'll talk it up at home.]
