Patents Era
Among the brand lovers, those of the Patents Era are the most prestigious. Alfred began the Patents Era when he registered his first patent in 1904. It was the Windshield Pipe, at the time still as Dunhill Motorities. In 1906 he opened his patent office to manage his inventions. Only in 1907, he opened his first tobacco shop in London at Duke Street-N.31A, and then it became history.
Since the first Dunhill patent stamped on a pipe was in 1905 (the year the patent was granted), we can say that Dunhill's Patents Era begins in 1905 and ends in 1954, with an inner tube patent.
