Title: [LB027030], Letter from Edison Phonograph Works, Thomas Alva Edison to Lowell C Briggs, Edison Phonograph Toy Manufacturing Co, November 14th, 1888
Editor's Notes: "The Edison Phonograph Works, if they receive a proper order under contract [unclear] could be ready on January 16th, 1889, to furnish you with toy phonographs for dolls, similar to sample shown to-day, at the rate of five hundred per day. This capacity can be doubled every six weeks. ### The estimated cost of the toy phonograph, put inside a properly made doll, is, as near as we can come at it at present, ninety-seven cents." Yours very truly, Edison Phonograph Works by [signed] TAE
