Edison's First Phonograph
Victorian illustration showing a picture of the inventor Edison's original phonograph of 1877. A brass cylinder with a sheet of tinfoil wrapped round it is turned by a handle, and a sharp point attached to a circular vibrating diaphragm scores the tinfoil when sound vibrations reach it. The quality of this image is acceptable, but not perfect, as it was scanned from a small original. |
