Sarah Boone invented an improved version of the ironing board in the late 19th century. Her design featured a narrow, curved shape that allowed for easier ironing of women's garments, particularly sleeves and bodices. Boone was awarded a patent for her invention in 1892, making her one of the first African American women to receive a patent in the United States.
