EDITORS COMMENTS
Choosing a Car to Match Your Wife's Complexion," we witness a man's perplexing quest to find the perfect car that complements his wife's unique complexion. The scene unfolds at an old-fashioned car dealership, where an array of colorful automobiles is on display. The salesman, dressed impeccably in a bow tie and suspenders, eagerly assists the indecisive husband, presenting various car models with an assortment of hues. The husband, with a puzzled expression, examines each car, comparing the colors against his wife's skin tone. The salesman, growing increasingly patient, suggests a car with a "magnificent shade of raspberry ripple," to which the husband responds with a skeptical look. The man's friends, who have gathered around, offer their unsolicited opinions, adding to the chaos. The historical context of this illustration is evident in the vintage cars and the traditional attire of the characters. The intricate details and whimsical humor characteristic of Heath Robinson's work are on full display, making this a captivating piece of art from the past. The decision-making process of choosing a car based on a wife's complexion might seem absurd today, but this illustration serves as a delightful reminder of the quirks and amusements of yesteryears."
