International Safety Pin Day - April 10

International Safety Pin day is always observed on April 10 to mark the date on which Walter Hunt invented the safety pin.

The ubiquitous safety pin is also known by other names: baby pin, nappy pin, loincloth pin, diaper pin, and diaper pin.

The patent was not the first time it had been invented. Similar items made from bone, ivory, silver, gold, or brass have been discovered at ancient Greek and Roman sites, as well as brass, ivory, ivory, silver, gold, or brass.

Walter Hunt's "dress pin" was supposed to spring open and had a clasp covering the point of preventing the injuries that straight pins caused. It became known as the safety pin for this reason.
