Victorian 'mug-shot' album of convicted felons compiled by Denbighshire County Constabulary [volume 1 of 2], 19th Century.
Description
A bound volume of 50 folios, showing photographs of felons with descriptions of the convicts and their crimes. The volume was prepared from cuttings from official police gazettes. The majority of felons featured were convicted in the county court at Ruthin, although a small proportion were convicted in other regions. This volume and its companion were put together by one Superintendent J. Bradshaw and he may have used it to identify felons who had returned to north Wales.
