Patent Drawings from Black Women Inventors
Business Resource and Innovation Center at Parkway Central Library
This display features enlarged patent drawings from the inventions of Black women. Spanning from 1884 to 1996, they highlight the ways in which these women’s ingenuity has contributed to the technology of our world. For a closer look at these patents and more, go to the BRIC front desk for a look at the book African American Women Inventors by Frank H. Schaller.
