Contraptions: a timely new edition by a legend of inventive illustrations and cartoon wizardry

Homour, satire and enginnering mix together in this wonderful journey through Heath Robinson's illustration. As a child, my parents had an early book of his collective work and use to spend hours, absorbed by the intricacy of the illustrations — I used to love drawing my own Heath Robinson-esque creations and so bought this book to hopefully share that with my own children.

Great Book, beautiful Illustrations, Hard Cover very good value

Brilliant inventions that gave the world a new description of equipment -Heath Robinsonish !!

For those who said the print sucks, come on it’s from early century, common sense. Best art from the artist.

Would like a few more colour illustrations .. But a nice book. gift
