🔸 King’s Cross, Euston Road July 1899. A busy scene outside the station, with horse drawn traffic going about their business and competing for space. Near the bottom left, a newspaper placard announces the execution of Mary Ansell. Mary Ann Ansell, a house-maid, was hanged at St Albans, on 19th July 1899 for poisoning her sister, Caroline, who was an inmate in an asylum. Her intention appeared to be to obtain 11 pounds, from an insurance cover on Caroline which she had taken out. Before her eventual execution there was considerable public pressure for a reprieve, on the grounds of her gender, youth and perceived lack of mental capacity (both of herself, and other members of her family). As against that, there was a significant reluctance within the Home Office to reprieve a poisoner, since it was seen as an easy but premeditated act. Her case thus received a measure of Parliamentary attention. In subsequent years the case was used to discuss the limits to criminal responsibility. The second picture is believed to be of Mary. #victorianchaps #vintage #victorian #kingscross #london🇬🇧 #pastlives #execution #hanging #history #goodolddays #oldphoto #nostalgia #retro #1890s #murder (at Kings Cross, London) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqS6zaSDim5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🔸 1919 Olive Thomas and her Russian wolfhound, by Hartsook Studios. She was a silent movie actress and one of the original jazz era flappers who sadly died a year later in 1920. She swallowed a bottle of corrosive bichloride mercury in a hotel bathroom in Paris Ritz: an “accidental” death apparently.

🔸 This picture has been described as the most badass photograph ever taken in New Zealand. The men were Prouse and Saunders Flaxmill workers in a place called Patarau. The photograph was taken in 1906. And it belongs to the Tyree Collection. The New Zealand encyclopedia, Te Ara, described the photograph as “New Zealanders have always liked having a laugh. These jokers are taking a break from work at the Prouse and Saunders flax mill at Whanganui Inlet, north-west Nelson, and posing for a comical group portrait. Isolated work gangs such as this one provided much of the basis for New Zealand’s brand of humour.” #victorianchaps #edwardian #goodolddays #newzealand #oldphoto #vintage #1900s #nostalgia #retro #badass #pastlives #history (at Whanganui) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpufomLDyIB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
