LaceyUnderall Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 The electronic cigarette can really be traced back to 1930 patents... however, the first patent to really come out that is almost perfect in comparison to our current PV's was originally filed in 1963 and the patent was granted in 1965. A fun post about the history of the ecig as we know it today. New Invention of 1963 - The Smokeless Non-Tobacco Cigarette Herbert A. Gilbert also took his Smokeless Non-Tobacco Cigarette to the Senate Committee on Commerce in 1967 (which I am trying to find original documentation of what occurred), but also made the Guinness Book of World Records for it in 1966!!! So needless to say, the ecig is far from new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Wow what a cool article Lacy! Makes you wonder what else has been burried over the years. He really was way ahead of his time. It's to bad he wasn't around to see what his invention has become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBIRMfromPHOENIX Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Thats a friggin awesome find Lacey. Way to go. You guys would be surprised about how many inventions used today were actually invented scores and even centuries ago. The first combustable engine was invented in the late 1600's. Alot of people dig through the archives and make fortunes with ancient patented ideas. I want to try the atty on this sucker! --Jason-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
