Dear Sirs:-
I find that the glass plates used for photograph dry plates retard the X Rays very little.
It would be a great aid to us experimenters if you would draw a few tubes and send by express of this kind of glass 3/4 of an inch in diameter and 1/16 of an inch wall.
I am not sure that you make this quality of glass. I suppose its a good quality of window glass.
Anything you can in regard to the above will be very much appreciated
Yours truly-
Thomas A Edison
