924. MULLINER, HENRY, Leamington Spa — Manufacturer.

New four-wheeled carriage, or improved brougham. The improved design and construction of the carriage- front affords more room inside either for two additional passengers, without the usual heavy appearance of such additions, or increased comfort as an ordinary single-bodied carriage. The novelty is the substance of the registration; being two distinct curves instead of only one in the front part, and trimming inside at the back. Its lightness (7 cwt.) and compactness of wheels, and consequently reduced draught, render it suited for one horse. A further improvement in this carriage is the principle of communicating with the coachman; the voice-conductor being entirely concealed, and the mouth-piece at each side, instead of at the middle of the back as usual, and suspended from the roof. The design is registered.

A series of drawings showing an improved system of curricle-driving, and also of posting with a two-wheel carriage.

Designs of various dog-carts, riding vehicles, etc.
