JACK THE RIPPER VICTORIAN LONDON CRIME POSTER
The sensational brutal murders of five prostitutes in
London's East End in the autumn of 1888 by an unknown
killer who came to be called `Jack the Ripper' are
probably the most famous unsolved crimes in history.
The five "soiled doves" were stabbed to death in
Whitechapel between August 31st and November 9th, 1888,
always late at night. Then, for unknown reasons,
the killings stopped.
Mary Ann (Polly) Nichols - August 31st, 1888
Annie Chapman - September 8th, 1888
Elizabeth Stride - September 30th, 1888
Catharine Eddowes - September 30th, 1888
(about half-a-mile apart from Elizabeth Stride)
and Mary Jane Kelly - November 9th, 1888
The women were not merely just murdered, but horribly mutilated,
with organs and other private bits removed and some possibility eaten.
The Mary Jane Kelly was mutilated nearly beyond recognition.
The photographs of the bodies even today are still deeply shocking
because of their incredible savagery.
This poster is 17 inches wide by 22 inches high, generous black ink lushly printed
on heavy parchment stock.
