This delightful print, dated 1928, is the first in the series "Very Patent Aides to Sport," and it showcases the Screw-Em-Out in all its complicated glory. Heath Robinson, known for his intricate and humorous contraptions, presents us with a machine that solves the age-old problem of keeping golf holes clean and free from debris. The Screw-Em-Out is a testament to the artist's inventive spirit and his ability to find humor in the most mundane situations. In this image, we see the Screw-Em-Out in action on a lush green golf course. The contraption, resembling a cross between a giant corkscrew and a mechanical octopus, descends into the golf hole, scooping up leaves, twigs, and other unwanted elements. Once filled, the Screw-Em-Out retracts back up, leaving the hole pristine and ready for the next golfer. Heath Robinson's intricate designs, characterized by their convoluted complexity, have long been a source of fascination and inspiration. The Screw-Em-Out golf hole cleaner is no exception. This print is not only a humorous take on the sport of golf but also a testament to the power of human ingenuity and the joy of a well-designed contraption.
