What's the spring situation like here? Did mattresses not have them back then? Have they been removed?

My mattresses were just stuffing. The spring board under it had the springs. Do you have springs in your mattress now. I went memory foam and air combo decades ago so im not sure what a typical one has now.

Personally mine (which I got from a local mattress manufacturer) has springs in it and sits on a "box spring" which as far as I can tell is just a platform for the mattress to sit upon and contains no actual springs
