Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/EdisonandPhonograph

 
Original - The invention which first gained Edison fame was the phonograph in 1877. This accomplishment was so unexpected by the public at large as to appear almost magical. His first phonograph recorded on tinfoil around a grooved cylinder which allowed the recordings to only be replayed a few times.
Reason
Because of its great historical and encyclopedia value.
