David Gestetner
David Gestetner (20 March 1854, Csorna, Hungary – 8 March 1939, London) was the inventor of the Gestetner stencil duplicator, the first piece of office equipment that allowed production of numerous copies of documents quickly and inexpensively. He was awarded the John Scott Medal of The Franklin Institute in 1888.
On 12 March 2011 a Blue Plaque was placed on his home at 124 Highbury New Park in north London.
==Early life==
At a young age, Gestetner began work at the stock market in Vienna. One of his tasks was to make copies of the activity at the end of the day by repeatedly handwriting the results. He decided to try and find a better method, and his experiments eventually led him to invent the first method of reproducing documents by use of a stencil. He went on to work in Chicago making kites out of Chinese paper.
He got the idea of a Duplicator machine after an ink-spill accident. There was a pile of kites next to a pot of ink, and the ink toppled over and spilled onto the kites. He found that the same ink pattern remained throughout the pile.
