This Day Is Important-1st September


Today, on 1st September 1887 Emile Berliner (May 20, 1851 – August 3, 1929) got the patent for Gramophone (An obsolete machine today).

We know it better as the record player. Emile Berliner or Emil Berliner was a German-born American inventor. 
Though Emile got the patent, but Thomas Edison got the fame (for making it work and making music with his American invention).

Berliner's legacy also lives on in his trademark (later adopted by RCA): a picture of a dog listening to "his master's voice" issuing from a gramophone.
