Invention of Paper Cup

Lawrence Luellen invented the paper cup in 1907. He created the first cup in 1907, a Health cup or Boston cup, for sanitary public drinking. Soon thereafter, the scene was joined by the brand Dixie Cup. And that was the point in the invention of cups and the history of the disposable cup when it took a turn. 

The concept revolutionized early 20th-century packaging and made for cleaner, more convenient drinking. With time, the metamorphosis of the paper cup resulted in the variety of custom cups that you will see today!
