THE EDISON PHONOGRAPH
The first sound reproducing device was an Edison Phonograph, invented by Thomas A. Edison in 1877, at Menlo Park, N. J., where he
then had his laboratory. In 1887 Mr. Edison took up his residence and his laboratory work at Orange, N. J., and here, under his personal
direction, the Phonograph has been developed into the wonderful musical instrument it is, known and enjoyed in the homes of every nation.
