Dear Sir: -- With reference to your letter of 15th inst., addressed to Mr. Edison, inquiring about the Kinetoscope, this instrument is not yet ready to be placed on the market. A number of them are being constructed now. The price complete, without Battery or Picture Strips, will probably be about $250.00, with a discount if a number of machines are to purchased. The Picture Strips will cost from five to eight dollars according to the subject. Yours very truly, A.O. Tate Private Secretary. M[aguire].
