An Electric Dog Cart - A Glimpse into 19th Century Transportation Technology
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases an intriguing piece of transportation history - the Electric Dog Cart, dating back to 1888. Created by an unknown artist and featured in The Graphic, an Illustrated Weekly Newspaper Volume 38, this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the innovative advancements of the Victorian era. The photograph depicts three individuals standing proudly beside the electric dog cart. A distinguished-looking man, possibly the driver or owner of this cutting-edge vehicle, stands on one side while a couple - a gentleman and a lady - stand on the other side. The woman's elegant attire reflects the fashion trends of that time. Manufactured by Messrs Immisch & Co. , pioneers in road transport technology during that period, this electric dog cart revolutionized traditional carriage travel with its use of electricity as a power source. This breakthrough invention represented Britain's commitment to embracing new technologies during the late 19th century. Although we are left without detailed explanations about its inner workings or specific features from this particular print, it serves as a testament to human ingenuity and progress at that time. It is remarkable how far we have come since then in terms of transportation technology. Preserved by The Print Collector and now available through Heritage Images, this image allows us to appreciate both our past achievements and our present-day innovations in road transport.
