Nikola Tesla FBI Files - Page 81

Gentlemen:

        I am making a study, motivated out of personal curiosity, into the life and works of Nikola Tesla. Mr. Tesla died on January 7, 1943 in the Hotel New Yorker. Since F.B.I. Operatives opened his safe and took his papers for examination, I wonder if these papers are available for perusal? If they are available, where would they be located, and are copies available to the public?

        I am a citizen of the United States, and have been cleared for security--the latest one being for work on Air Force Contracts for Eastman Kodak Company.

        Thank you very much for any information or help you may be able to give me in this matter!!

                                                       Respectfully yours,

                                                       [REDUCTED]
