Most patents are what you would expect from a government doucment:
downright boring. Yet the drawings on some are absolutely amazing,
with beautiful line-art drawings that show in stunning detail the
inner workings of everything from farming machines to airplanes to
rockets. Join us on a tour of some of the best patent drawings ever
created, as well as a glimpse of some of our most historically
significant patents, spanning over 200 years of patent art. Since
patent dratsman are not listed on patent documents, the artwork
they create remains annonymous. This book brings out the best of
those. With some interesting discussion on tools the draftsman use,
and some of the more important patent drafting rules issued by the
US Patent & Trademark Office, this book will be appreciated by
anyone interested in mechanical drawings, line-art illustrations,
and fascinating milestones in patent history. Kevin Prince, an
inventor and US Patent Agent, has collected a unique set of patent
art over five years as a patent researcher, taking note along the
way of thoses patents having exceptional artwork. Now he's brought
this collection to the public, showcasing masterfully illustrated
inventions from over two centuries. You will be surprised at what
some of these artists created--many with just a pen and paper--as
far back as 1794 with Eli Whitney's Cotton Gin.
