The rubber band was patented in England on March 17, 1845 by Stephen Perry.

Notable developments in the evolution of rubber bands began in 1923 when William H. Spencer obtained a few Goodyear inner tubes and cut the bands by hand in his basement, where he founded Alliance Rubber Company. Spencer persuaded the ''Akron Beacon Journal'' as well as the ''Tulsa World'' to try wrapping their newspapers with one of his rubber bands to prevent them from blowing across lawns. He went on to pioneer other new markets for rubber bands such as: agricultural and industrial applications and a myriad of other uses. Spencer obtained a patent on February 19, 1957 for a new "Method for Maki ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
