Edison General File Series -- 1914: (E-14-36) Electric Light
[E1436]

This folder contains correspondence and other documents relating to electric lighting and power. Included are numerous congratulatory letters pertaining to the thirty-fifth anniversary of the invention of the incandescent light. Also included are documents concerning Edison’s continuing involvement with the General Electric Co. A note to longtime associate John W. Howell, an engineer at GE's Edison Lamp Works, indicates that Edison "will do anything to help out."

Approximately 10 percent of the documents have been selected. The material not selected consists primarily of unsolicited congratulatory letters and other correspondence without a substantive reply.
