Arthur H. Pitney (1871–1933) was an American inventor best known as the father of the postage meter.
Pitney filed a patent application, in Stamford, Connecticut for the world’s first postage meter on December 9, 1901.
He presented, demonstrated and perfected his invention over two decades – after partnering with Walter Bowes, the postage meter was approved by the U.S. Postal Service. He co-founded the Pitney-Bowes Postage Meter Company in 1920, now Pitney Bowes, is a $6.1 billion provider. Pitney’s invention, the Pitney Bowes Model M Postage Meter, has been recognized as an International Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
