Inventions created in 1871

The English-American inventor Montague Redgrave was awarded a patent for improvements to bagatelles that replaced the billiards cue with a spring-loaded plunger, decreased the size of the game so that it would fit atop a counter, changed the balls from billiard balls to marbles, and changed large wooden pegs to small metal pins. This improvement was an important step towards the creation of pinball.
