Stock Photo - One of the novel exhibits on display at the Schoolboys' Exhibition at the New Horticultural Hall, London in the Winter of 1928-9; a metal robot which explained the workings of the heart, lungs, stomach etc in mechanical form. The organiser of the exhibition, Mr Schofield, explained the apparatus saying, 'We are going to translate the body into the terms of something with which boys are familiar - the steam-engine.' Touch a button on the Robot and the 'heart' begins to beat, the 'lungs' go up and down, and all the auxiliary machines function. The robot was part of a display by Horlick's Malted Milk Company who supplied information to the artist. No mention of schoolgirls.
