March 19, 1881

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, New York, March 19, 1881  See the photo below for the listing of a patent issued for "Electric Light, to T. A. Edison" with the patent number noted. An extremely significant item--how the electric light has changed our daily life! This is the actual listing in the list of "Index Of Inventions for Which Letters Patent of the United States Were Granted in the Week Ending Feb. 15, 1881" as found near the back of this complete, 16 page issue.
A very historic, yet inconspicuous, report. Some light water staining and fold browning and some edge tears but not affecting the mentioned content.
