Epsicles aka Popsicle

[Curly]

In 1905 Frank Epperson was just a young lad of eleven. One evening Frank mixed himself a drink of soda water powder and water stirring it with a stirring stick. This was a popular drink in 1905. Before he got around to drinking it he was called away leaving the drink on the back porch. The next morning he discovered that with the cold night the mixture was frozen with the stirring stick making a nice handle. Eighteen years later Frank remembered the incident and started producing a product he called Epsicles, in seven flavors. That name didn’t stick but the Popsicle was born.

Dr, Harry Coover was trying to develop an optically clear plastic for gun sights. The product was too sticky to be used. In fact he once ruined a pair of very expensive glass lens when he stuck them together in the glue. But he finally realized he might have a marketable item. Superglue.
