History

Hardcover. A piano attachment for camp concerts is just one of the absurd inventions to be found in this book of cartoons designed to keep spirits up during the Second World War. These intricate comic drawings poke gentle fun at both the instruments of war and the indignity of the air-raid shelter in Heath Robinson's inimitable style. Num Pages: 160 pages, 104 duotone halftones, 46 black & white line drawings. BIC Classification: 3JJH; HBWQ; WHC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 253 x 194. .
