and hand operated windscreen wipers?

Vacuum or compressed air. Both have been used on vehicles I've driven in
the past.

Vauxhall used to have them driven directly from the engine via a
flexible drive.

Must have been a LONG time ago.

Early/mid '50s. Were near enough current with vacuum ones. Strange thing
is electric ones had been around since long before WW2.

I go back to Victors/Bedford vans and even that had leccy ones..no
heater, but electric wipers..
