GENERAL LETTERBOOK SERIES
The forty volumes in this set contain tissue copies of Edison’s correspondence for the period February 1887-August 1899. Although there are occasional letters in Edison’s hand, most of Edison’s manuscript correspondence is in the hand of Alfred O. Tate, John F. Randolph, or Thomas Maguire, acting as his secretary. Similarly, the retained copies of Edison’s typewritten letters are frequently signed or initialed by one of his secretaries.
Many of the letters relate to the manufacture and marketing of Edison’s improved phonograph and to legal and financial dealings among the various phonograph companies. In addition, there are numerous documents pertaining to mining and ore milling and to the operations of Edison’s plant in Ogden, N.J. Included also are letters, many addressed to the Edison Machine Works and the Edison General Electric Co., regarding Edison’s work on improved filaments, meters, and other components of his electric lighting system. Some of the documents relate to the business of the Edison Manufacturing Co. and to the production and promotion of the Edison-Lalande battery. Other letters deal with Edison’s phonoplex system of telegraphy, electric traction systems, the mimeograph, and motion pictures. There are many letters addressed to the law firm of Dyer & Seely and to Edison’s personal lawyer, Sherburne B. Eaton, concerning patent applications, interferences and infringements, and various other legal concerns. In addition to the business correspondence, there are numerous letters relating to Edison’s personal finances and to family affairs.
Although the books tend to progress in chronological order, a few books contain letters for two discrete time periods. For example, LB-025 covers the periods June 1887-January 1888 and August-November 1888. Some of the books overlap in their coverage. LB-053, for example, contains letters for a two-year period also covered by five other letterbooks. There are no letterbooks covering the period June 17, 1892-February 3, 1893.
Approximately 30 percent of the letters have been filmed. All substantive letters pertaining to Edison’s business operations and to his personal affairs have been filmed. The following categories of documents have not been filmed: routine letters of transmittal or acknowledgement; non-substantive correspondence concerning the ordering and shipment of materials; letters about routine financial transactions; routine or repetitive responses to letters from individuals seeking employment, requesting advice, and offering advice;
responses to other unsolicited correspondence. In addition, the index at the beginning of each book has not been filmed.
Also not filmed are most letters relating to the phonoplex system, an operation in which Edison was only tangentially involved. Most of the phonoplex items on the microfilm pertain to operations on the Pennsylvania Railroad. For a discussion of the case-study approach used in the selection of these documents, see the targets preceding the various "Telegraph - Phonoplex" folders in the Document File.
Although every technical effort has been made to ensure the legibility of the documents on the microfilm, most of the books contain some pages that are very difficult to read. In LB-029 and LB-030, for example, there are numerous letters that are partially or entirely unreadable because of spreading or smearing ink. Many of the pages in LB-059 and in subsequent books were written in very faint green ink. In addition, there are occasional pages that are wrinkled or torn. Letters presenting severe legibility problems have not been filmed.
Copies of outgoing correspondence can also be found in the Document File in folders such as "Edison, T.A. - Outgoing Correspondence" and "Edison, T.A. - Employment - Outgoing Correspondence." Letters similar to those in the General Letterbooks appear in some of the letterbooks in the Company Records Series. See, especially, LM-025, Edison Phonoplex System Records; LM-245 and LM-247, New Jersey and Pennsylvania Concentrating Works Records; LM-306, Edison Manufacturing Co. Records.

1 appreciate very highly your kind acknolwdgments of my labors, end would be glad if it were in my power to grant the ree quest that you make of mu in rerard to naming onc of your moveroents the "Edison Watch®.
During the past few years a Rreat MANy AAYKKKRS articles have beon placed upon the market, end my nam attached to then by unauthorized perties. In suppressing such actions as these i have always taken the stond that my. neme is used only in sonnec tion with my own inventions. It is neeossary that J should inuintain this position owing to the number of people who are qntercestca in inventions which 1 have placed upon the market.
Lt is with mach reprot that I am obliged to refuse your request, as I appreciate tho feolings whi ch prompted you to make ite It would, however, ba inconsistent with the position which I have
aidags assumed where my name has been connested with inve nitions
other than my owe
Arain thanking, you for the honor which you have paid me,

Letterbook, LB-025
This letterbook covers the periods June 1887-January 1888 and August- November 1888. Many of the letters are by Edison. There is also correspondence by Alfred O. Tate and John F. Randolph. Included are letters relating to phonograph patent applications in the United Kingdom, electric light patents in France and Germany, and the marketing of the electric light in Asia. Other letters pertain to the ore separator and to the Edison phonoplex system. Included also are letters to Samuel Insull about the proper manner of representing Edison as a Surrogate and correspondence with A. B. Dick regarding an electric pen agreement. The front cover is marked "188[7?]" and is labeled "General Letters." The spine is stamped "Letters." The book contains 498 numbered pages and an index. There are also numerous groups of unnumbered pages inserted into the book between the numbered pages. Approximately 30 percent of the book has been filmed.

My Dear Insull? I have your letter of the 22nd instant in ref'erence to Mr. Edison's signature, j .
L think that you ought to be a little more carefulp in writing me letters of this nature. Inthe first place I deny absolutely that I made any attempt to imitate Mr. Edisons signature or that his name as I wrote it bore any resemblance to his auto- graph. It bears about as much FES eMP LANGE KES a landscape pa inting does to the Statue of Liberty; they are both works of art, but nothing further can be said in regard to them
I have no doubt that when you wrote this letter you had an audience before whom you wished to display your powers of dic~- tation and criticissm, and while I have no objection whatever yo your posing as my censor for your own gratification, I think you should select an issue of a less serious nature than that which you manufactured when witing your letter under reply. I believe that you are the last person in the world yho would intentionally do me a personal injury, but you ought to remember that an affarr of this kind can b very easily be distorted and refelcted in an en-
tirely different light from that in which you yourself intend to put it, I shall bring the matter tefore Mr. Edison myself , as
