Thumbtacks, drawing pins, whatever the hell you want to call them -- know when they were invented?

1903.

Or, well, at least one kind was invented in 1903. Apparently "map pins" came about in 1900. I've also seen a claim that some sort of thumbtack was invented in 1888, but that's STILL TOO LATE!

Jumpin' Jigowatts, I'm starting to think Alice really DID hang up her pictures via static cling!
