Scotch tape was invented in 1930 by banjo-playing 3M engineer Richard Drew. Scotch tape was the world's first transparent adhesive tape. Drew also invented the first masking tape in 1925—a 2-inch-wide tan paper tape with a pressure sensitive adhesive backing.

Is cellophane tape the same as scotch tape?

Many may use "scotch tape" as a generic term is typically used to refer to cellophane tape of any brand. In conversation, yes, chances are the person asking for "scotch tape" is referring to a cellophane or transparent tape such as that used for wrapping gifts.In reality, the "Scotch" name is in fact a registered trademark of 3M corporation and is the brand name of the original product. The Scotch Brand is applied to various forms of tape, and in fact was originally applied to a masking tape (not cellophane).To help combat trademark genericization, 3M markets its products today as "Scotch Brand Tape."
