Preserving Tyres - W.H. Robinson's Innovative Solution to Car Maintenance
EDITORS COMMENTS
(c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library This intriguing photograph captures the ingenious invention of W.H. Robinson, a British inventor, who revolutionized car maintenance with his automatic dustpan and brush attachment for preserving expensive tyres. Dating back to the early 20th century, this image showcases the inventor's wit and resourcefulness in addressing a common issue faced by motorists during the heydays of motoring. The humorous scene portrays a man, likely Mr. Robinson himself, standing next to his car, which is equipped with an unusual accessory. The front of the vehicle boasts an automatic dustpan and brush, designed to sweep away debris and prevent damage to the tyres as they roll along the uneven and dusty roads. The contraption, which appears to be made of metal and wood, consists of a pan suspended from the bumper, and a brush attached to the radiator grille. As cars became increasingly popular and expensive, owners sought ways to maintain their vehicles' appearance and longevity. This innovative solution by W.H. Robinson not only saved time and effort but also added a touch of humor to the mundane task of car maintenance. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the past, as well as the enduring appeal of automobiles in our collective history. This photograph, taken by Pollinger Ltd, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of historical motoring and the inventive spirit that continues to drive innovation in the automotive industry.
