Edison General File Series -- 1914: (E-14-19) Cement House
[E1419]

This folder contains correspondence relating to the widely publicized development of Edison's poured concrete house. Most of the letters are unsolicited requests for information concerning the house. Several letters pertain to housing in Europe, including the challenges of postwar reconstruction. Among the correspondents for 1914 are Horace B. Mann of the New York architectural firm Mann & MacNeille and housing developer Frank D. Lambie.

Less than 10 percent of the documents have been selected.
