Description: |
Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. There are no patent drawings available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
“An accident prevents our immediate examination of the specification of this patent, and we do not recollect the particulars respecting it; we know, however, that a part of the improvement consists in the retraction of the point of the pencil within the case, by turning its sheath in a reversed direction. We will give the whole hereafter.”
Journal of the Franklin Institute Vol. 4, Jul. 1829 pg. 55
