EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a whimsical invention by the brilliant artist William Heath Robinson. Titled "A new machine for picking up matches and cigarette-ends adopted by the LCC at the suggestion of the Anti-Litter League" this artwork showcases Robinson's unique blend of humor and creativity. In this delightful illustration, we see an intricate contraption designed to tackle litter in a comically exaggerated manner. The machine is equipped with various mechanical arms, wheels, and levers that seem to have a mind of their own. Its purpose? To efficiently collect discarded matches and cigarette ends from public spaces. Commissioned by the London County Council (LCC) upon recommendation from the Anti-Litter League, Robinson's invention embodies his signature style of imaginative solutions to everyday problems. His attention to detail is evident as he intricately depicts every nut, bolt, and cog in this fantastical creation. The image not only entertains but also serves as social commentary on littering habits during its time. It reminds us that even mundane tasks can be approached with ingenuity and humor. This remarkable piece was originally featured in "Lets Laugh! A Book of Humorous Inventions" published by Hutchinson in 1939. Today, it continues to captivate audiences with its timeless charm and wit.
