In 1909 Thomas Edison visited his close friend Mark Twain’s estate in Redding, CT and filmed the famous author. The silent footage, the only known recording of Twain, first appeared in a 1909 production of Twain’s “The Prince and Pauper,” and it shows Twain wearing his trademark white suit, puffing a cigar. Twain would die one year later.
