This was so exciting to see on Edison's Birthday! A virtual tour of West Orange, you can use the navigator to look up and down, 360 degree view of each laboratory room zoom in on things you want to take a look at, down to the fibers of the wood! I took what I thought was a quick look and I spent about 30 minutes. If you zoom on the 1887 and 1888 perfected and before phonographs, those cylinders on the mandrels are ones I made. You can see the chemicals, and equipment.
