First Light Bulb

Henry Woodward, a medical student from Toronto, Ontario (virtually unknown), in 1874 patented the first incandescent lamp with an electric light bulb, successfully testing it at 87 Woodward Street in Toronto. In 1875 Henry Woodward sold a share in the patent to Thomas Edison, the man known for the invention of the
light bulb. In 1879 Edison managed to come up with a more practical lamp and thus......... history was made!
