Re: EDISON CLASS M
This has been an excellent thread!
Were the cylinders that were played in these kinetoscope machines narrations pertaining to the projected images, or just appropriate background musical accompaniment? (I wouldn't begin to imagine that any kind of script that was synchronized to the characters would be possible.)

Re: EDISON CLASS M
Hi,
Be sure to see (and read) Ray Phillips' great book on Edison (Class-M) Peephole Kinetoscopes. There was little attempt (surprisingly) to synchronize cylinder sound-tracks with the original films - see the only known example in Ray's book (p. 83).
