EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming image of a Portable Petrol Pump, affectionately known as "Heath Robinson's Motoring Marvel," (c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library. This ingenious accessory, designed by the renowned British humourist and inventor, W. Heath Robinson, was a must-have for motorists in the early 20th century. The portable petrol pump, affixed to the side of a car, was a handy solution for those unexpected fuel stops on long journeys. Its compact design allowed it to be easily transported and concealed when not in use. The pump could be painted to resemble a golfing bag, adding a touch of whimsy and humour to the vehicle. Alternatively, it could be worn flat on the running board, ready for action. Robinson's design aimed to prevent sudden stoppages, a common problem for motorists during this era. The pump's flexible hose and sturdy construction ensured a smooth and efficient refuelling process. The pump's simple yet effective design is a testament to Robinson's inventive mind and his ability to solve everyday problems with a touch of humour and creativity. This photograph captures a moment in history when motoring was an adventure, and a portable petrol pump was an essential accessory for the road. The image is a delightful reminder of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the past, and the importance of being prepared for the unexpected on the open road.
