EDITORS COMMENTS
A Crystal Set-to: An Amusing and Zany Wireless Development by William Heath Robinson (1927) This delightful and somewhat startling photograph captures an unexpected moment during the broadcasting of an intriguing dance programme on Hampstead Heath in 1927. The image, brought to life by the ingenious mind of British illustrator and satirist William Heath Robinson, presents a comically absurd wireless development that has left the couple in a state of mild surprise. The scene is set with the couple, elegantly dressed and seemingly engrossed in their dance, each adorned with an elaborate crystal set contraption atop their hats. The intricate designs of the wireless equipment appear to be an integral part of their outfits, seamlessly blending technology and fashion. The man's set boasts an array of tubes, wires, and crystal detectors, while the woman's features a more graceful, yet equally complex design. Heath Robinson, a master of comic invention, was renowned for his whimsical and humorous illustrations. His zany ideas often showcased the absurdities of everyday life, and this image is no exception. The notion of being able to enjoy a dance programme while simultaneously using a crystal set to listen in on the broadcast is both amusing and fantastical. The intricate details of the crystal sets, with their delicate tubes and wires, not only add to the visual appeal of the image but also serve as a testament to the fascination with wireless technology during the 1920s. The humour and inventiveness of this photograph continue to captivate audiences and serve as a reminder of the playful spirit of the era.
