Unidentified prisoner

from North East Museums

• Kieron Jackson said:

  Looks well off.

• optimal chicken said:

  Prisoner?! I wonder if his 'well standing' stopped him having to be named? He kinda looks like he caused trouble at a wedding do..

• oye411 said:

  I shall speculate in stating according his manner of dress in the early 1900's he is a man of "means". So name and offence not recorded because even though a pic was taken he never saw the judge and a few shillings or whatever save the trouble. Crime? I wonder the type of crime if I'm correct in that he has money. Dare you speculate?

Mrs Fred Rowland Mrs Neville Rowland and Mrs John Griffith the Hotel Carlton, Brisbane, 1949

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Attitudes towards smoking among women had begun to change as well. While clandestine smoking may have been indulged in by the avant-garde and the fashionable prior to the war, the changes in society during the 1920s brought female smoking into the open, and in the following decades advertising began to target women.5,6 The increasing engagement of women in the paid workforce, particularly with the outbreak of the Second World War, led to greater social and financial freedom for many women, which in turn fuelled higher smoking rates.2,5 By the end of the war, more than one-quarter of Australian women were smokers, along with almost three-quarters of adult males.7 Although the second half of the 1900s brought confirmation that tobacco use is a major cause of death and disease, female smoking continued to increase, peaking at one-third in the mid-1970s, by which time smoking in males had begun to decline.8,9.

Edna Wallace Hopper, 1/3/16 (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  "Edna Wallace Hopper (January 17, 1872 - December 14, 1959) was an American actress on stage and in silent films." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edna_Wallace_Hopper In June 1916, she was co-star in the movie "The Perils of Divorce", see the review in the Bismarck daily tribune., July 14, 1916, Image 4, column 2 with photo of her and Frank Sheridan. Obviously, divorce was considered in those days as the greatest evil and it was not unusual for a man to divorce his wife if he saw another man kissing her hand ...

  B-59: Thanks for additional information on Hopper and her career. We will update the records.
