A convenient garage / W H Robinson
A convenient garage is hoisted down from a roadside position.

EDITORS COMMENTS
(c) (courtesy of the estate of Mrs. J.C. Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library This intriguing photograph captures the moment a convenient garage, ingeniously designed by W.H. Robinson, is being lowered down from its roadside position. The garage, a quirky addition to the landscape, offers a touch of whimsy and bizarrerie (a word meaning strange or unusual) to the otherwise ordinary scene. The garage, when not in use, could be hoisted back up, making it a convenient solution for motorists in need of a quick repair or a place to store their vehicles. The idea of a garage that could be raised and lowered at will was a novelty during the early days of motoring history, adding a touch of humor and innovation to the transport industry. The photograph, taken in an unspecified location and date, transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past when roadside conveniences were still a novelty. The image is a testament to the ingenuity of W.H. Robinson and the evolution of automotive technology. The garage's unusual design, combined with the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape, creates a striking contrast that is both visually appealing and historically significant. The photograph is a reminder of a time when innovation and creativity were at the forefront of solving everyday problems, and where the ordinary could be made extraordinary with a touch of bizarrerie. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical images of motoring and transportation history. It is a reminder of the past, a celebration of innovation, and a testament to the power of human ingenuity. (c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs. J.C. Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library.
