The history of recorded souind began with a sheet of tinfoil and a familiar nursery rhyme: "Mary Had a Little Lamb." Although many books refer to this revolutionary invention in passing, until now no comprehensive history of the tinfoil phonograph has ever been attempted. In this book the story of the earliest phonographs is recounted through the machines themselves -- the surviving hardware that so eloquently expresses the history of Edison's greatest invention. With hundreds of illustrations and surprising historical documentation, TINFOIL PHONOGRAPHS unveils a fascinating story that is all too little known today.
