goldenratiophi Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I was really bored, so I went to the US Patent Office site and searched for patent no. 1. I found this:http://patimg1.uspto.gov/.piw?docid=US0000...N/1%2526RS=PN/1It has scanned images of four papers. The patent is for the locomotive steam-engine. On the second page, it says that the date is 1830! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tutankhamun Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Wow, that's neat. I've always wondered what was the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProgramZeta Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Is #1 the first patent given or submitted? Or is it both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
