In the chilly streets of October 1936, a peculiar story emerged from Leip sig, where the pursuit of warmth led to a curious discovery. A newfangled mattress, touted as a game-changer for sleep-deprived souls, was unveiled at the local fair. Dubbed a ‘revolutionary’ innovation, this electrically heated mattress promised to keep bed warmers toasty, even in the coldest of rooms. The device, comprising an extensive heating coil and a graduated control switch, allowed users to adjust the temperature to their liking.
