Yukio Horie of the Tokyo Stationery Company invented a modern fiber-tipped pen in 1962. Highlighters and fine-line markers appeared in 1970's. Binney & Smith, who made Crayola, bought name âMagic Markerâ in 1989 and started selling improved permanent markers and highlighters.
It had a sponge-tipped handle and was filled with different paint colors. These marker pens were not commercially viable and didnât sell. In 1944, Walter J. De Groft patented a marking pen that held ink in liquid form in its handle and used a felt tip. This is the patent that will become a âSharpieâ pen in 1964. First modern (and usable) marker pen was Sidney Rosenthal's âMagic Markerâ which he invented and started selling in 1953. This marker had glass tube of ink for a body and a felt wick and its name comes from a fact that it was able to write on any surface.
