Nov. 21, 1892. Mr. Edison,- Walter Miller spoke to me a few days ago in regard to a new cylinder which he has made for taking masters. It produces better results in every way, so I understand, than our regular cylinder. If you are satisfied that this statement is correct, the N. A. P. Co. will order a thousand of these special cylinders. We estimate that it will require about twenty thousand records to put us through. All these with the exception of a number that will be used in our special exhibit, will of course be duplicates. Yours truly,
