Aside from the very powerful Railways lobby the general populace, now familiar with very dangerous scary noisy railway locomotives and traction engines, simply did not know and found the quietness of the new power source unexpected and when compared with the ubiquitous horse its lack of odour - street-cleaners - very welcome.

Harry Lawson gets a full biography in another (linked to this) article. That conviction was near eight years after events covered in this article when he was going strong and involved in his one major success (Daimler cars). That his publicity/promotion was a great deal more effective than his financial management is beyond doubt! I still think it should be removed as totally irrelevant.

Is it possible to find Any reference at all other than the Green one given for describing Lawson as a PR Great? If so, please supply. Eddaido ( talk) 21:55, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
this is the reference concerned which I have removed pending further discussion "Lawson was a natural showman and his campaign is today recognised as 'one of motoring's public relations greats'.
