In 1868, Margaret E. Knight invented the first machine that could cut, fold, and glue flat-bottom paper bags—an idea that revolutionized packaging. When a man tried to steal her design, she fought back in court, proving her engineering talent with original sketches and technical knowledge. She won the case, secured her patent in 1871, and became one of history’s great female inventors. Her machine remains the foundation of paper bag manufacturing worldwide. | Artifact Archives
