EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a cozy driving experience with this intriguing photograph of the W.H. Robinson's Autofooetjoye central heating device for cars. Dating back to the early 20th century, this innovative heating system was designed to provide comfort and warmth to motorists during chilly winter drives. The image showcases the compact zinc water tank securely attached to the back of the car, heated by an oil stove nestled beneath it. The driver could enjoy the warmth by resting his feet on the connecting pipework, which transferred the heat from the stove to the cabin. For those who preferred a cooler experience, the oil could be replaced with iced water. The Autofooetjoye heating system was a significant advancement in automotive technology during a time when winter driving conditions could be harsh and uncomfortable. The system's quirky name, derived from the French words for "auto" (self) and "foot joyeux" (happy foot), reflected the simple pleasure of having warm feet while on the road. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a fascinating glimpse into the history of automotive innovation. It showcases the ingenuity and resourcefulness of inventors like W.H. Robinson, who sought to improve the driving experience for motorists in all weather conditions. (c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library.
