William Heath Robinson 1872 - 1944
Islington
Main Category: Past to Present
Sub-categories:
The much used term, "Heath Robinson [contraption]", is used to suggest that a machine, or more often today - a process, is way too complicated for such a simple output. It is coined from William Heath Robinson who, amongst writing and performing in pantomime, drew caricature cartoons of inventors in the late 1800s. The age was all about industrial progress and great inventions, but Robinson's cartoons depicted the self-indulgence of some inventors who appeared to produce colossal or overly complex machines that did very little. The phrase was in wide-spread use in the early 1900s.
William Heath Robinson studied at Islington Art school in the 1880s before going on to the Royal Academy.
During the Great War and WW2 his cartoons were sent to the troops to boost morale. He had three sons who fought in WW2. William Heath Robinson died in 1944 having gone into hospital for an exploratory operation.

The LayStar online web directory is completely free and is the place to advertise attractions and services. Many online directories tell you their service is free, but then you find that they want to charge you for including your telephone number or a link to your website. Not so with LayStar. We enable you to provide both telephone and a website link all for free. LayStar Directory advertising is quick and easy to set up and can be maintained by only you at any time of the day or night. Simply register with us (that's free too) and use the search form on the left to find the UK location of the attraction or service (suggest the location if it doesn't yet exist on LayStar) and then follow the link that will appear here to build your advert.
