Leggett & Platt Inc
A maker of the springs and mechanisms that hide inside the things you sit and sleep on—mattress innersprings, adjustable bed bases, recliner and sofa-sleeper mechanisms, plus carpet cushions and auto seat components. Founded in 1883 in Carthage, Missouri, when J.P. Leggett invented a spiral steel coil bedspring and teamed up with blacksmith C.B. Platt, whose family ran the local plow works, to build them. The first springs were made in a borrowed corner of the plow factory.
