The list of inventors shows many
queer apprenticeship. but the case Of
Luther G. Crowell, Of Hoe & Co.. New
York. is unique. in that he learned the
tricks Of the trade by using each in
vention as a tool for the next. He be
gan as sailor before the mast. and
was altogether unsuspecing of the gift
of invention which he possessed. His
first patent was a paper bag especially
adapted 10 the needs Of sailors. lie
studied tho process carefully, and al
tempted TO patent machine for fold
ing the bag, but this clsshed with the
interests of the company who had done
his original folding, and by way Of
settling the difficulty. Crowell was tax
en- into the firm. Here he went from
folding bags to envelopes, then TO news
papers and finally TO printing presses
which would print and fold at the
same time. He is the inventor Of the
web printing press, for long time
the most used press in this country.
Every difficulty in his way was OBJ
waited by new invention and new
patent. lie has never been taught any
thing at all about practical mechanism.
He merely worked as his experience
taught him, and each step in his up
ward Journey is duly recorded in the
patent office, where he has more than
three hundred patents. which is re-
garded as evidence of rarely prolific
brain.
