1886: OBSCENE LITERATURE PROLIFERATES

I am currently going through the "CRIME-MORALS-SOCIAL VALUES" folder in the Hamilton Library Digital folder which I have been compiling over the last 10 or 15 years. The next few posts will reveal the fact that we will always have crime, immorality, and anti social values in certain segments of our society. What an comparison it would be to compare the "impure press" of 1885 to the printed pages we see today!

  1. Hi Tom:)

    British Prime Minister David
    Lloyd George among others was
    involved in a scandal over
    INSIDER TRADING in the stock of the American branch of the Marconi Corporation in the early 1910s. I am not passing judgement on him as I don't know if he did it..but
    the more things change the more
    they stay the same.
