EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the Victorian era with this advertisement for John Carter's Selection of Invalid Chairs, as featured in the Illustrated London News in 1884. The image showcases a range of innovative chairs designed to provide comfort and convenience for those with mobility issues or those seeking relief from fatigue while reading or writing. John Carter's collection includes a variety of chairs, each thoughtfully designed to cater to different needs. A reclining chair with a built-in writing desk and adjustable lamp allows the user to work in a comfortable position without the need for constant stooping. Another chair features a wicker carriage with wheels, enabling easy movement around the home or garden. Additionally, the advertisement highlights a spinal chair, an adjustable bed, and a bath chair, all designed with the utmost care for the patient's comfort and wellbeing. The use of wicker and adjustable features were revolutionary at the time, offering a level of customization and ease not previously available. The exterior scene in the advertisement showcases a patient lying down in a stretcher chair, surrounded by other chairs and tables, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior scene depicts a patient comfortably seated in a reclining chair, engrossed in a book, with a lamp illuminating the page. This advertisement offers a glimpse into the innovative furniture designs of the 1880s and the compassionate approach to caring for the sick and disabled during this era. John Carter's Selection of Invalid Chairs represented a significant step forward in the world of medical furniture, providing both functionality and style for those in need.
