84 W. Heath Robinson Cartoons Found
This may be the kind of thing that only delights me, but in a stash of hugely lucrative railroad posters from throughout British rail history,
archivists have found other pieces of art including 84 W. Heath Robinson cartoons. Robinson was in that greatest generation of British book illustrators that did any number of cartoons satirizing modern life through the depiction of over-elaborate and slightly fragile-seeming machines. Although he was extremely prolific, the thought that there were 84 of these things sitting in someone's collection slaughters me.
