You don't hear many criminals saying that nowadays: “I don’t know anything about it but I take all responsibility”.

A very clear image with lots of character to it. What's interesting about these police mugshots is that it shows crime has always happened - personally I don't think 'The Good old Days' existed. Instead, I think times were very hard and even making small sums of money illegally happened often. No welfare state existed back then and when work was slack or health was poor then people took desperate measures..
Michiel2005 said:
[https://www.flickr.com/photos/flyeye] I don't think anybody argues that there was no crime in the past, but what is striking is the amount of attention from the police and the press these relatively small property crimes attract. Also the hard punishments are noteworthy. It would be difficult to find a police station where you can report such crimes nowadays, let alone that they will be brought to court.

Michiel2005 I still hear older folk complaining 'it was never like that in the past'.. I agree though - petty crime but we need to remember that a coat or two kitchen knives was often all folk had. That amplified the severity of the crimes. Imagine finding you have no coat mid-winter and no money to buy one.

It's staggering that not so long ago clothes were stolen in such numbers. I guess it was the only thing which traded well?

I guess that time of year (late Feb/early March) in North Shields people would have been more than happy to pay for boots and warm winter clothes "on the cheap" ... some people couldn't even afford to buy boots at all in 1906. There was no social security then ... you lived on your wits.

That's very true! I'd forgotten about how lucky we are now..
