The Motion Picture Patents Company ( MPPC, also known as the Edison Trust ), founded in December 1908, was a trust of all the major American film companies ( Edison, Biograph, Vitagraph, Essanay, Selig, Lubin, Kalem, American Star, American Pathé ), the leading film distributor ( George Kleine ) and the biggest supplier of raw film stock, Eastman Kodak.

The Trust was a cartel that held a monopoly on film production and distribution comprising all the major film companies of the time ( Edison, Biograph, Vitagraph, Essanay, Selig, Lubin, Kalem, American Star, American Pathé ), the leading distributor ( George Kleine ) and the biggest supplier of raw film, Eastman Kodak.

* Southern California Edison, primary electricity supplier for southern California, USA.

* 1892 – Thomas Edison receives a patent for a two-way telegraph.

* 1876 – Thomas Edison receives a patent for his mimeograph.

Edison was awarded a patent for this invention in 1884.

Since there was no apparent practical use for such a device at the time, the patent application was most likely simply a precaution in case someone else did find a use for the so-called Edison effect.

Through such people as Nikola Tesla, Galileo Ferraris, Oliver Heaviside, Thomas Edison, Ottó Bláthy, Ányos Jedlik, Sir Charles Parsons, Joseph Swan, George Westinghouse, Ernst Werner von Siemens, Alexander Graham Bell and Lord Kelvin, electricity was turned from a scientific curiosity into an essential tool for modern life, becoming a driving force for the Second Industrial Revolution.

He received in 1942 the AIEEs Edison Medal " for distinguished contributions to the art of electric communication, notably the regenerative circuit, the superheterodyne, and frequency modulation ".

Unique among all the one minute long films made by the Edison company, which recorded parts of the acts of variety performers for their Kinetoscope viewing machines, was The Execution of Mary, Queen of Scots.

The best known of these film-makers was Edwin S. Porter, who started making films for the Edison Company in 1901.

Blair's company supplied film to Edison for five years.

In 1910, Edison Studios produced the first film version of Frankenstein, which was thought lost for many years.

Since 1902, Edison had also been notifying distributors and exhibitors that if they did not use Edison machines and films exclusively, they would be subject to litigation for supporting filmmaking that infringed Edison's patents.

Advertisement from 1889 for the Edison Mimeograph

Thomas Edison received US patent 180, 857 for " Autographic Printing " on August 8, 1876.

In 1880 Edison obtained a further patent, US 224, 665: " Method of Preparing Autographic Stencils for Printing ", which covered the making of stencils using a file plate, a grooved metal plate on which the stencil was placed which perforated the stencil when written on with a blunt metal stylus.

The only original cast retained for the U. S. version series were Matt Frewer ( Max Headroom / Edison Carter ) and Amanda Pays ( Theora Jones ); a third original cast member, W. Morgan Sheppard, joined the series as " Blank Reg " in later episodes.

Edison Carter ( Matt Frewer ) was a hard-hitting reporter for Network 23, who sometimes uncovered things that his superiors in the network would have preferred to keep private.

Edison cares about his co-workers, especially Theora Jones and Bryce Lynch, and he has a deep respect for his producer Murray ( although he rarely shows it ).

Theora was Network 23's star controller (" stolen " from the World One Network by Murray ) and, working with the network's star reporter, Edison Carter, she often helped save the day for everyone.

In the 20th century the traditions of Russian opera were developed by many composers including Sergei Rachmaninoff in his works The Miserly Knight and Francesca da Rimini, Igor Stravinsky in Le Rossignol, Mavra, Oedipus rex, and The Rake's Progress, Sergei Prokofiev in The Gambler, The Love for Three Oranges, The Fiery Angel, Betrothal in a Monastery, and War and Peace ; as well as Dmitri Shostakovich in The Nose and Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District, Edison Denisov in L ' écume des jours, and Alfred Schnittke in Life with an Idiot and Historia von D. Johann Fausten.

However, he is not above selling out his employers if it means a big payoff, a fact which Edison Carter takes advantage of on several occasions while working on stories.

He announced his invention of the first phonograph, a device for recording and replaying sound, on November 21, 1877 ( early reports appear in Scientific American and several newspapers in the beginning of November, and an even earlier announcement of Edison working on a ' talking-machine ' can be found in the Chicago Daily Tribune on May 9 ), and he demonstrated the device for the first time on November 29 ( it was patented on February 19, 1878 as US Patent 200, 521 ).

But it would take several more years and the renewed efforts of Edison and the further improvements of Emile Berliner and many others, before the recording industry became a major factor in home entertainment.

Although the patent described several ways of creating the carbon filament including " cotton and linen thread, wood splints, papers coiled in various ways ", it was not until several months after the patent was granted that Edison and his team discovered a carbonized bamboo filament that could last over 1, 200 hours.

In 1878, Edison formed the Edison Electric Light Company in New York City with several financiers, including J. P. Morgan and the members of the Vanderbilt family.

Tesla stated: On November 6, 1915, The New York Times announced that both Edison and Tesla were to jointly receive the 1915 Nobel Prize, leading to one of several Nobel Prize controversies.

Dickson and his team at the Edison lab then worked on the development of the Kinetoscope for several years.

He wrote several articles on writers such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Dean Howells, Israel Zangwill, John Burroughs, and interviewed public figures such as Andrew Carnegie, Marshall Field, Thomas Edison, and Theodore Thomas.

This execution method was created by employees of Thomas Edison, and has been used only in the United States and, for a period of several decades, in the Philippines ( its first use there in 1924 under American occupation, last in 1976 ).

In the basement of the new Ellicott Square Building, Main Street, Buffalo, New York, Mitchell Mark ( properly spelled Mitchel Mark ) and his brother Moe Mark added what they called Edison's Vitascope Theater ( entered through Edisonia Hall ), which they opened to the general public on October 19, 1896 in collaboration with Rudolf Wagner, who had moved to Buffalo after spending several years working at the Edison laboratories.

In 1912 several things happened in Yorba Linda: it received its first post office ; the Yorba Linda Citrus Association was founded ; the Southern California Edison Company began providing electricity ; and the first church was constructed.

On January 18, 1937, President Roosevelt appointed Charles Edison as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, then as Secretary on January 2, 1940, Claude A. Swanson having died several months previously.

Edison built several experiment bulbs, some with an extra wire, a metal plate, or foil inside the bulb which was electrically separate from the filament, and thus could serve as an electrode.

William Preece, a British scientist took back with him several of the Edison Effect bulbs, and presented a paper on them in 1885, where he referred to thermionic emission as the " Edison Effect.

The recording also received several prestigious awards, including the Goldene Europa from Germany, the Edison Award from the Netherlands and the Rockbjörnen from Sweden.

Con Edison sponsored several summer tennis camps at P. S.

However, he was involved in several lengthy patent disputes with Thomas Edison over his claims to the lightbulb.

He has earned more than 40 international awards and distinctions, including two Grammy Awards ( USA ), several Juno Awards ( Canada ), the Grand Prix du Président de la République ( France ), the Prix mondial du disque de Montreux ( Switzerland ), the Amsterdam Edison Award, the Japan Record Academy Award, and the German Music Critics ' Award.
