Re: [TCML] Something interesting
Ed, Bart
The Smithsonian, specifically, the Archives Center at the National
Museum of American History, possesses the papers of Kenneth M. Swezey,
who was a close friend of Tesla's during the last 19 years of Tesla's
life. The collection consists of about 25 boxes. I've been wanting to
gather more rare Tesla papers, so I travelled there to see what I could
find. It turns out there was a lot. I made over 250 photocopies. There
were letters from Tesla, letters to Tesla (from such people as President
Roosevelt), countless Tesla news articles, personal manuscripts written
by Tesla outlining his discoveries, photographs...basically every single
thing relating to Tesla you could imagine. The guy kept all of the
original publications of the Tesla Society headed by Leland Anderson,
for example. I just got home and haven't even looked over any of it
because I spent the whole two days photocopying non-stop. I now have to
sort through it all (and decipher Tesla's handwriting). I will
definitely scan the picture and send it to anyone interested, along with
anything else that is interesting.

Thanks for the note. I'd sure like to see the picture or any others
you thing are relevant.
