Thomas Edison and Miller Reese Hutchison are the two men named in this print, which sets it apart from the many Edison portraits on the same board. Hutchison was an engineer who worked closely with Edison in the 1910s on hearing aids and other electrical devices, and the pairing reflects how Edison's laboratory relied on talented collaborators to turn ideas into working products. The record gives no date, so the exact occasion is unknown, but the copyright notice in the print's credit line shows that Edison himself controlled how the image was distributed.
