Biography of H. Acton Langslow

Description:

We have seen an example of this clamp, marked "LANGSLOW" on one side and "PAT 3 PEND" on the other. We have not been able to find an equivalent US patent.

Henry Acton Langslow (1884-1956) was a former star athlete (football) and WWI veteran who belonged to a furniture manufacturing family. After working for chair and desk maker Langslow-Fowler Co., he left in 1922 and established upscale chair maker The Falls Furniture Co., which seems to have been relatively short-lived. Other than a passing mention of his having coached high school football we find little information on his activities after the 1920s.
