EDITORS COMMENTS
This advertisement print, hailing from the mid-1880s, showcases the impressive range of steam engines manufactured by Robey & Co of Lincoln (Globe Works) in London, Liverpool, Edinburgh, and Paris. The intricate design, adorned with various medals and prizes, proudly announces the winning achievements of the company's innovative steam engines. At the heart of the advertisement, a grand steam engine takes center stage, its powerful presence emphasized by the use of bold, circular shapes and vibrant colors. Surrounding the main engine are smaller, yet equally impressive, engines designed for various applications - from milling and hoisting to threshing and grinding. The versatility of Robey & Co's steam engines is further highlighted by the inclusion of portable and fixed engines, as well as centrifugal pumps and tank and boiler systems. The intricate details of the engines are beautifully rendered, with wrought iron components, intricate gears, and meticulously crafted boilers all on display. The advertisement's Victorian-era aesthetic, complete with ornate borders and elegant typography, speaks to the company's commitment to excellence and innovation in the realm of steam engine manufacturing during the 1880s. Robey & Co's steam engines were instrumental in driving commerce and industry across Britain and beyond, powering a diverse range of applications from mining and manufacturing to transportation and agriculture. This advertisement print is a testament to the company's unwavering dedication to advancing steam engine technology and its significant impact on the industrial landscape of the late 19th century.
