3 typed pp. (12 3/8 x 9 in.), about 60 words added in pencil in Edison's holograph, with a typed cover page (signed "Donald"), from the interviewer. Evenly toned, formerly folded with some splitting to folds, slight irregular edges.

Edison's answers to eight typewritten questions with a cover letter from his one-time interviewer, Donald: "Thomas A. Edison, being pretty damned deaf, it's the custom to submit questions in writing — hence this. I forgot to ask him to sign it, unfortunately ... I was sitting next to him, and he was writing down answers, and smoking the famous cigar ..." While it is undated one question, which references the Kellogg Treaty, reveals the date to be January 16, 1929. 

The questions address Edison's late-career efforts on developing a domestic source for rubber, his views on the Kellogg–Briand Pact ("It is one of the things that will help"), and President-elect Hoover's impending visit to his home in Fort Myers ("Don't know he may come over.") And he😼 did indeed — Hoover, Henry Ford, and businessman Harvey S. Firestone reunited in Florida that February to celebrate Edison's 82nd birthday and the 50th anniversary of the incandescent light bulb (see lot 57)♏.
