EDITORS COMMENTS
c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library Title: "When an Accident Occurs: The Pro Bono Instanto Mechanical Arm - A Remarkable Advance in Common Courtesy" In this intriguing historical photograph, we witness an innovative invention designed to prevent potential legal disputes in the aftermath of an accident. The Pro Bono Instanto mechanical arm, created by W.H. Robinson, is shown in action, thrusting a glass of liquid refreshment towards an unsuspecting victim. The humorous image, although seemingly far-fetched today, once represented a groundbreaking approach to accident compensation. The year is unknown, but the photograph offers a glimpse into the past, where the concept of accident compensation was still evolving. The Pro Bono Instanto mechanical arm was a preemptive measure, designed to extend a gesture of goodwill and potentially dissuade the victim from taking legal action. This mechanical arm, a remarkable advance in common courtesy, was a testament to Robinson's forward-thinking and inventive spirit. The arm, equipped with a glass of alcohol, was likely intended to offer the victim a moment of comfort and relief following an accident. The use of alcohol, while perhaps questionable by today's standards, was a common practice during that era for its perceived healing properties. This photograph, with its unique blend of history, law, and humor, offers a fascinating insight into the past and the evolution of accident compensation. It serves as a reminder of the importance of common courtesy and the lengths people have gone to in order to prevent potential disputes.
