Captured around 1910, it showcases an automatic road sweeper diligently at work on the bustling streets of England's capital city. In this snapshot of history, we witness a landscape filled with male machinery operators guiding horse-drawn carts equipped with sweeping brushes. The horses, strong and sturdy, play a crucial role in transporting these essential cleaning tools across the city's intricate infrastructure.
