He made the hanger.

In 1903, Albert Parkhouse returned from lunch to work ate the Timberlake Wire and Novelty Company in Jackson Michigan. There were no place to hang his coat.

He picked up a piece of wire and twisted in to two loops that would fit inside his coat.

His employer decided to patent it. The company's attorney put his name on it.

He earned nothing from his invention...
