First-day cover «Swiss inventions - Garlic press»

When Karl Zysset, who was actually a bike mechanic, invented the garlic press, he imitated two aspects of the bike brake – its practical design and the principle of leverage force. He added the chamber with the freely moving punch to produce the garlic press that we still know and use today. After this invention, he gave up his bicycle business in Lyss and founded the company Zylyss or Zyliss, which is still well known today. The handy kitchen aid ‘Susi’ has certainly earned its place in the series of “Swiss inventions”!
