Portland, 4-26-92 Mr. Thomas Edison My Dear Sir: I am in possession of one of your wonderful phonographs, having purchased it at $500. I wish to know if I have not a right to travel anyplace with it and not be bound by state lines. I have bought this machine at this enormous price and traveled this state since the first of August last. I have to pay his tax, and seems to me I am not restricted as to where to exhibit. Will you desire helping in your exhibits at the World's Fair? If If so consider me as an applicant and send me full information. Send circulars of Kinetograph and oblige. Yours truly, L.M. Holmes
