    Manuscripts

    1 item: single sheet of paper, n.d. The typed portion refers to "the installation of a semi-mechanical exchange," which would be "quite spectacular in operation and would prove an interesting feature of the building if so arranged that it could be visible through a glass partition." A later handwritten portion to "Mr. Baum" reads, "the above is quoted from a memorandum I wrote you on the subject of telephone equipment in March, 1927. It may be of some value at this time." The signature is a mere squiggle.
