Excerpt from The Story of My First Invention
My first invention was not one of those studiously thought out ideas, where, knowing the necessity of improvement, as the Patent Law puts it, of a new and useful art, machine, manufacture, the inventor works on it, and by a slow, step-by-step process gradually evolves a means of accomplishment, but was one that came to me instantly.
When I was engaged in manufacturing, that was before I be came an attorney, I generally had to work long and faithfully on an idea before the complete conception and final construction was evolved in my mind. Notwithstanding the fact that I have had granted me by the United States and Foreign Patent Offices, twenty-seven patents.
This first invention makes a story which I hope the reader will find not only interesting, but instructive. It is not an unusual story from the commercial side, but is somewhat out of the ordinary from the number of legal difficulties encountered.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book narrates the author's personal journey of inventing an inkstand and his subsequent business tribulations. Reflecting on his experience, the author shares important insights he gleaned on the three paramount factors that determine the fate of any invention: the commercial, financial, and legal aspects. He posits that commercial viability is the lynchpin of success and opines that a firm grasp of patent law is less critical than many patent attorneys would have inventors believe. The book chronicles the author's trials and errors as he grapples with manufacturing, sales, and financial constraints, ultimately concluding that thorough research, informed decisions, and a clear understanding of the market are essential for any inventor aspiring to succeed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
