Historie

In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell was awarded the patent for the telephone. But historical evidence suggests the design Bell used was actually the invention of Barnesville, Ohio inventor Elisha Gray - who, by the way, also beat Bell to the US Patent Office by two hours. Was the patent examiner bribed to award the patent to Bell instead of Gray? For the next century, historians would debate who deserved to be the answer to the trivia question of "Who invented the telephone?" www.ohiomysteries.com feedback@ohiomysteries.com www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Music: Audionautix- The Great Unknown The Great Phospher- Daniel Birch Learn more about your ad choices.
