The beginning of the whiteboard
[edit]Actually in the beginning of the 1960s in the Uk, Edmond Hellerman from Edmond Hellerman ltd who specialized in technical drawing equipment experimented with the new plastics and came up with a thin plastic not too shinny version he thought would be better than the standard boards in schools. He cut the plastic to the size of existing blackboards. He added adhesive tape and rolled them into tubes adding the new erasable markers. He then sold these to schools. He had no idea that anything like this was going on anywhere else in the world. Unlike other items he had invented. He didn’t patten his invention. This was in the United Kingdom on the early 60’s. 62.4.41.31 (talk) 04:28, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
