Thomas Edison Autograph Signed Letter Display

Thomas Edison Autograph Signed Display - a one page handwritten note signed in pencil circa 1920's by American inventor, scientist and businessman Thomas Edison to the manager of Edison Records Disc Division Jaffrey P. Buchanan.  The note reads in full: "Buchanan, Any answer about the Vacuum Dryer Scandel - Edison. Hoffman say leak in goose neck cause of water in Dryer, E. You have been there why do you not see they attend to biz."

Jaffrey began working at the Edison Chemical Factory in 1910 and within a few days he was introduced to Edison and made a good impression. Edison remained involved in all details of the day-to-day operations of the factory, relying on men like Buchanan to execute his instructions and keep him informed of all necessary details. Edison kept long hours, and often preferred to work through the night; and these letters and notes were the preferred method of communication. Notes and instructions were hurriedly scripted beneath typed or written reports or on small sheets of paper, 5" x 8". The notes were sometimes as brief a single line, and as long as two pages, sometimes including mathematical notations and engineering sketches.

Double mounted in cream and black with an image of Edison at work and professionally framed in black to an overall size of 15 x 19 inches
