Classified LOANS THIMBLES WERE NOT INVENTED Vt THE DUTCH A newspaper story some time ago stated that "the Dutch Invented the thimble In 1690." This is a common error among certain groups of people. Thorold Rogers, In his book "History of Agriculture and Prices In England," mentions a dozen prices quoted on thimbles In the year 1494. The average price was 4 shillings. Shakespeare also speaks of thimbles. Other writers, including Edward Peacock, believe that are as old as mankind and are prehistoric.

The name "thimble'' was derived from the fact that they were originally worn on the thumb and were called "thumbles."
