The Tale of the Amp Lion

• 1925

William Heath Robinson’s comic drawings of elaborate improvised machines captured the nation’s imagination enough for his name to enter the English language. In this silent cartoon ad he makes the creative step of morphing the ‘Amplion’ loud speaker, marketed for early gramophones and wireless sets, into a rampaging lion.
