Walter Hunt was friends with imagination, so when it backed debt 15 (336 at the exchange rate today) dollars, he sat down, a couple of hours and thought sketched sketch wire fasteners. At one end of a spring, on the other - the leaf clasp. For 400 (8960) dollars sold the rights to the invention and blessed peace pin. Not inventing while nothing fundamentally new. Since this type of fasteners used since the days of the Ancient World - the Greeks and the Romans and other Illyrians to the Germans with the Slavs. The name of this device "fibula" (in any case, the Romans)
However, in the 13th century in Germany were constructed entirely functional buttons under the loop on clothing (by some buttons of the same a hundred years during the lunchtime, the earliest of them are found in Mohenjo-Daro in the Indus Valley. They have a curved shape, they were made about 5,000 years ago). And fasteners quickly came to naught, because it does not allow to make a fashionable fit.

. So quirky Hunt just gave pins and a second life from the 19th century, it began to actively juzat household.
But already in the 20th century, with the first delivery Richard Hell, then the unforgettable Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols, steel push pins in all parts of the body unattractive (as I understand it, once decorated - means natural state falls short of required standards of beauty)
