My mom had many of these and she used them for everything from storing potatoes to carrying laundry!

Ohhhh I remember those!!!!

Wasn't Kmart home of the "Flashing Blue Light" special? They'd announce a limited time special price on an item and you could get over and buy the item or not?

The adage that "necessity is the mother of invention" clearly holds true in the invention of the original Murphy Bed.

Sidebar: William L. Murphy, who was born in Columbia, California moved to San Francisco at the turn of the century where he met his future wife. He lived in a one-room apartment that had a standard bed taking up most of the floor space. Because he wanted to entertain, he began experimenting with a folding bed, and applied for his first patent around 1900.

There is a resurgent of beds that fold up and pull out from the walls. These are not your grandfathers Murphy Beds!
