Thomas Jennings was a free man born in 1791 in New York City. He was 30 years old when he was granted a patent for a dry cleaning process. In his early 20s Thomas Jennings became a tailor, and later opened a dry cleaning business in the city. As a tailor. Jennings' skills were so admired that people near and far came to him to alter or custom tailor items of clothing for them. Eventually, Jennings reputation grew such that he was able to open his own store on Church street which grew into one of the largest clothing stores in New York City. While running his business Jennings developed dry-scouring. He had many customers complain of their clothes being ruined by stains and so he began experimenting with cleaners and mixtures that would remove the stains without harming the material. He earned a large amount of money as a tailor and even more with his dry scouring invention and most of the money he earned went to his abolitionist activities. In 1831, Thomas Jennings became assistant secretary for the First Annual Convention of the People of Color in Philadelphia, PA. Thomas L. Jennings Dry Scouring technique created modern day dry cleaning. Jennings was fortunate that he was a free man at the time of his invention. Besides all the other indignities and cruelties slaves had to face, they were also ineligible to hold a patent. Under the US patent laws of 1793 a person must sign an oath or declaration stating that they were a citizen of the USA. While there were, apparently, provisions through which a slave could enjoy patent protection, the ability of a slave to seek out, receive and defend a patent was unlikely. Later, in 1858, the patent office changed the laws, stating that since slaves were not citizens, they could not hold a patent. Furthermore, the court said that the slave owner, not being the true inventor could not apply for a patent either. Thomas Jennings died in New York City in 1856.

Invent, Invention, Inventor - What will Batman and the Joker invent? What will they make that is new? They both invented strange things.
The Joker: I have an invention! I have something no one has ever made before. All of my inventions are tricks!
Batman: I am an inventor, too. I am a person who makes things that no one ever thought of. We are both inventors, but I'm better than you are. I'll make something to stop your tricks!

Hi, addie7. I was hoping you can do a drawing of Nicky singing Illusion by Austin Moon and playing the guitar while his friends watch him in WTRB style. Can you do it? It's okay if you don't want to. It's just a small favor.
Okay!, a small favor is nothing...
Well
I imagined something like this:

Nikola Tesla (July 10, 1856 - January 7, 1943)
Nikola Tesla registered more than 700 patents in 35 countries of the world, and many of those inventions brought progress and prosperity to mankind. However, Tesla, when he died in New York, was penniless.
Nikola Tesla 1st Electric Car in 1918 That Regenerate Electricity from the Earth.
This is Nikola Tesla's 1921 Pierce-Arrow electric car, powered by pure etheric electricity. It is a self-charging car; it does not run on batteries, oil, or gas.
Electric cars have been around much In 1931, Nikola Tesla presented and tested a new automobile that he had developed it with his own personal funds.
The motor had been removed, leaving the clutch, gearbox and transmission to the rear wheels uninterrupted. The power receiver (gravity energy converter) had been built by Tesla himself. It was installed in front of the control panel. A heavy antenna, approximately 1.8 meters long, protruded from the converter. This antenna apparently had the function as that of the moray converter (radiant energy!).
Mr Tesla said there was enough power in the converter to light an entire house, plus run the car's motor.
The car was tested for a week, reaching a top speed of 144 km per hour effortlessly...
