Pre-Edison Sound

A sound recording made two decades before Thomas Edison invented the phonograph.

The only snag is that the earlier machine's recordings couldn't be played back until now, so it was a tad on the pointless side.

That is some kind of eerie, hearing that voice that was otherwise lost to time.

I thought I read somewhere Lincoln's voice had been recorded in this manner.
