Sound Recordings Heard for the First Time Ever
Pioneers Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and Emile Berliner donated the recordings and other documentation to the Smithsonian in the late 19th century. Using equipment housed at the Library of Congress, those recordings are able to be heard for the first time.
This is amazing. Also amazing: Smithsonian’s Tumblr blog!
