Preface From 1903 until now, 1912, the most necessary thing at the Edison works was the development and improvement of cylinder machines, but competition in the field of record making kept the necessity of better records squarely in their minds. Lambert and the other Indestructibles set the pace and Mr. Edison, in the end made the ultimate product, in this case the new Blue /\mberol Record. In the years that I have been interested in and collected Edison, I have always marveled at the way his activities seem to come to life every time I open a new year of the EPM. Feeling a kinship towards him is a natural tendency for a collector, but without the faith and foresight of one man 85 years ago, none of this would be ours to enjoy — "Mac" McMillion. In addition to the full 12 months of EPM, printed here in America, we are fortunate to have some pages from a 1911 British E.P.M. included — courtesy of Mr. G. L. Frow — co-author of The Edison Cylinder Phonographs and author of The Edison Disc Phonograph. Wendell Moore
