\"Joe<\/p>\n

At the end of June, we published a blog post<\/a> that covered the dawn of color TVs. In this blog, we talked about the very first commercial TV program that was broadcast in color by CBS more than 64 years ago.<\/p>\n

Today, we\u2019re sharing our founder\u2019s connection to one of the key inventors of color TV! Davison and inventing go hand-in-hand. After all, our products have sold on more than 1,200 retail store shelves and online.<\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s really no surprise that our very own CEO and founder, Mr. George Davison, would somehow have a connection to a man who helped invent the color TV.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe inventor of the color picture tube is a friend of mine. He and I are in a picture together in my office with a wonderful and impacting letter,\u201d<\/em> said Mr. Davison.<\/p>\n

In this letter, Joe Donahue talks about how George Davison has made great strides in both his career and the Davison Inventing Method.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe progress you have made and the level of proficiency you have now achieved from that modest start is now beyond imagination. I am not only very impressed but thrilled to witness such a dynamic and constructive organization in action,\u201d said Donahue. <\/em><\/p>\n

If we\u2019ve said it once, we\u2019ll say it again; in the inventing world, things change. People are constantly working to find a better way to carry out even the most everyday tasks.<\/p>\n

For Donahue, the idea of taking something that already exists and making it better is very familiar. Donahue, the key inventor to the color picture tubes that are found in televisions, has taken notice of our founder\u2019s keen ability to excel in the world of inventing.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of this background {talking about his experience as an inventor} I feel particularly qualified to assess the creative and productive capability of your organization. You turn out advances and inventions at a prodigious rate that is probably unmatched anywhere in the world,\u201d <\/em>said Donahue.<\/p>\n

The Davison Inventing Method has helped many people turn their inventing dreams into a reality and it\u2019s because of this process that we feel a great sense of pride.<\/p>\n

After all, there\u2019s nothing quite like seeing the Davison \u201cD\u201d on store shelves across the country. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cNot only do you create your own advances but you are flexible enough to help other inventors through the many precarious steps of turning their idea into a reality. Many inventors are not capable of, nor realize the importance of the steps of, patent search, patent filing, designing a product that satisfies a need and that is readily manufactured in a cost effective manner, designing functional packaging, producing realistic prototypes of the product and the packaging, and presenting the product to the key people in commercial world. Your organization is well versed in all of these areas and they provide a very worthwhile service,\u201d <\/em>he noted.<\/p>\n

So, the next time you turn your television, you can thank Joe Donahue for the ability to watch your favorite show in color!<\/p>\n
