Photos of the Arrested

[kybearfuzz]

I needed a bit of levity and found it on Flickr. I love looking through old photographs from the early 20th century. Everything is in black and white because the world wasn't in color until the 1950's, you know.


Yeah, you know he's a bit guilty looking...

The sets of arrest photos from the Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums are found on Flickr. There are quite a few guys (click for link) that are rather cute I think. And there are the ladies(click for link) who may have been arrested for larceny, but their true crime is that against fashion.

Enjoy!

I'm glad they tossed in a pic of someone arrested on indecent exposure with all those larcenists.

LOL! And did you notice that HE looks the most menacing of the bunch? I wonder what he was flashing about to get arrested :D

Some of the guys are kinda cute, but that's a whole lotta mustache going on.... Wonder if that's the early 20th century version of the goatee as evil twin ;)

It very well could be! I like the staches on some of them. :)

In my town, we didn't have color until about '68. That's when we got cable.
