Along with its own air compressor (pumped by hand) And he called him;
"DISTRIBUTOR OF PAINTING"
The first airbrush! The airbrush in the scheme and the patent are''owned''Libery & Charles Walkup. As you can see, not much more than a little wooden tube, a screwdriver, and a spoon. It was filed on October 1, 1881 and patented on April 25, 1882.
The story begins in Iowa in 1879, when Abner Peeler to the passage of a few odds and events, experiment with a small wheel (which resembles a small reel) and "PaintDealer" was born. "Distributor of paint?" - The name alone tells us that it was not exactly an airbrush start!. It was a blunt object, but it worked and how even the shirtsdid not exist, he chose to experiment with painting a picture, making tweaks to the picture of it. And this is precisely the main use of the airbrush for the next fifty years. Buthe did Abner? He sells it for ten dollars. (should have put it on eBay). However, in October 1881 by the patent calls for "Distributor of Painting" and is granted in April1882. But wait what is this? There are two owners?!?
Here comes the brand new Liberty Walkup and his older brother Charles. In 1881bought the rights to the invention of Peeler and become owners of the first airbrushpatent. Peeler received $ 700 dollars and an additional $ 150 more to renew the'airbrush', in particular, "the moving bar''(arm).
