1960 Cot for Babies & Toddlers


Pint-Sized Cot Keeps Baby Happy
From November 1960 Popular Mechanics


Built to provide baby with a safe, comfortable and familiar bunk anywhere the family goes, the new British "Autocot" fits snugly between the front seat and the rear deck in any car; won't slip during turns or sudden stops.  The canvas hammock is slung from an aluminum frame which expands from 40 to 48 inches in two-inch steps to adjust to cars of any length.  Outside the car, aluminum legs fold down to make a bed or seat for the yard, beach, or hotel rooms.  The whole cot weighs only four pounds, and collapses for carrying and storage into a flat 24-inch package.  Thus a bed familiar to the baby can be carried anywhere.
