Quote, Patent caveat (Conflicting opinions of Meucci biographers) and 2002 U.S. Congressional resolution sections
Critics dispute the claim that Meucci could not afford to file for a patent or renew his caveat, as he filed for and was granted full patents in 1872, 1873, 1875, and 1876, at the cost of $35 each, as well as one additional $10 patent caveat, all totaling $150, for inventions unrelated to the telephone.
