Some of the letters concern contract negotiations, censorship, unauthorized duplication of motion pictures, and the U.S. tariff on motion pictures. Other documents pertain to royalties from the Eastman Kodak Co. and to Edison's stock holdings in the Biograph Co. Also included is a letter from Dyer to Edison enclosing a confidential statement of the cost of negatives produced by the Biograph Co. during the period January-August 1912.
