EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful sequential cartoon by W. Heath Robinson, titled "Incendiary," we witness an amusing mishap during the turbulent times of World War II. The scene unfolds at a window where a group of overexuberant ARP (Air Raid Precautions) wardens, armed with a hose, are on high alert for any signs of fire or smoke during a raid. Their concern is heightened by the thick, black plume billowing from a nearby house. Unbeknownst to them, the source of the smoke is not an incendiary bomb or a fire, but a disgruntled cook frantically trying to save her Christmas pudding from being soaked during the air raid drill. In a moment of frustration, she removes the pudding from the pan, causing it to catch fire. The wardens, determined to extinguish the perceived danger, spray their hose with great force into the window. The cook, startled and alarmed, is seen in the background, holding the charred pudding in a towel, while her husband looks on in disbelief. This charming cartoon, created by the renowned British illustrator W. Heath Robinson, offers a humorous glimpse into the daily life of people during the war, showcasing the blend of fear, frustration, and resilience that characterized the era. The image is a testament to the enduring spirit of the British people, even in the face of adversity.
