Excerpt from Suggestions Upon the Sale of Patents
A patent rarely sells itself. - Once in a great while some person hunts up the owner of a patent and buys it but such instances are very rare, so rare as not to be worth tak ing into account as a reasonable basis of making a sale. It is an observation of un doubted soundness that, as a rule, a patent for even a meritorious invention is without mon ey value unless it be supplemented by energy, perseverance and business tact. It is like a gold mine unworked.
