toaster 1909
Mar. 31st, 2009 10:43 amThe toaster is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year a century after it was first patented by technician Frank Shailor.
Shailor who worked for General Electric created his toasting machine 20 years before the sliced bread was even invented.
Originally, the toaster was constructed of a wire fence with no covering and users had to place the bread inside and turn it by hand.
