1960210231960. African American law enforcement photographic archive 1940s-1969 documenting the presence and professional roles of Black police officers during the decades spanning segregation and the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. These images record individual officers peer relationships and public-facing roles within police institutions providing visual evidence of Black participation in law enforcement at a time of limited access to such positions. The archive captures both formal portraiture and informal interaction situating these individuals within evolving social and institutional conditions.<br /> <br /> Archive comprises 11 vintage silver gelatin photographs ranging in size from approximately 2.75" x 5.5" to 5.5" x 7.25". A sequence of six smaller photographs depicts several African American men in uniform including officers wearing double-breasted dress coats with badges a patrolman in standard duty attire and one image showing a man in a Marine uniform standing beside a police officer. One photograph captures two uniformed officers shaking hands suggesting a moment of professional recognition such as academy completion. Another image shows two officers flanking a third individual in civilian attire possibly a legal official based on positioning and dress. A separate photograph includes two older uniformed officers with a handwritten inscription on the verso reading "This is your Brother A.B. and his buddy Ezell Anderson." The archive also includes a 1969 press photograph identifying Herbert A. Craigwell as a high-ranking officer in the Boston Police Department alongside accompanying text referencing increasing representation of Black officers in major city forces. An additional press image identifies Los Angeles patrolman Ronald Allen described in relation to the gradual inclusion of Black officers within urban policing structures. A signed photo of a policeman wearing small round glasses a hat with the number 7 above "Police" reads "Lovingly Kenny" depicting an African American officer likely from the mid 1940s at a municipal department.<br /> <br /> Created during a period marked by both institutional exclusion and gradual integration these photographs provide a record of African American participation in law enforcement prior to and during major Civil Rights reforms. The inclusion of press images and personal photographs reflects both public recognition and private documentation of professional identity. Minor edge wear and light fading visible across several photographs; overall very good condition. This archive offers a focused visual record of Black law enforcement presence in mid-twentieth-century America. unknown
1950233981950. 1950s crime investigation archive documenting police evidence work during a period when departments increasingly relied on crime-scene photography forensic comparison procedure footwear evidence analysis fingerprint comparison and organized mid-century police evidence methodology to connect suspects to burglaries thefts and other property crimes. The material records officers inside a commercial or storage-room setting examining a desk or cabinet area inspecting the floor and documenting a shoeprint impression with a clearly visible sole pattern. One scene includes a Black officer standing among uniformed white officers a significant detail for mid-century police history since African American officers in many American cities were still restricted in assignment promotion or patrol authority during the 1940s and 1950s. The archive originated from Wisconsin house.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 7 Very large format silver gelatin photographs each 11" x 13.75" United States circa 1950s-1960s. This archive showcases the order of investigative procedure with officers entering an interior crime scene locating possible points of entry or concealment documenting footwear evidence conducting footwear comparison analysis and marking distinctive characteristics for forensic comparison. Uniformed officers in leather jackets and peaked caps gather in a cramped small commercial setting lined with cardboard boxes while a Black officer is visible between them near the center of the room. Investigators examine the lower section of a desk or built-in counter with one man crouched partly underneath the work surface and another officer reaching toward the floor. Close-up evidence views record a shoeprint or boot impression pressed into dirt or soft material with original red circles marking specific cuts gouges or comparison points in the sole pattern. Additional views compare a dirty shoe sole against the recovered impression while another scene places a woman wearing a veterans' cap in conversation with a suited man in an office with an American flag possibly connected to witness victim or community context.<br /> <br /> The presence of a Black officer inside the active investigative setting adds a further historical layer placing African American law enforcement labor within the daily practice of police work at a time when many departments were only slowly expanding Black officers' authority beyond segregated or limited assignments. Light curling handling wear minor edge creasing and surface wear visible; images remain clear and detailed. Overall in very good condition. unknown
1960234741960. Police investigation photo archive depicting mid century law enforcement activity riot control operations and custodial procedures during the period when American police departments expanded specialized enforcement units in response to rising urban unrest and public disorder in the 1960s. After the riots in Watts in 1965 Newark and Detroit in 1967 and hundreds of smaller confrontations between police and civilians across American cities departments throughout the Midwest and East Coast increasingly organized motorcycle patrol divisions tactical crowd control units and coordinated search operations using dogs radios and mobile patrol systems. Police departments also adopted more militarized uniforms transportation fleets and surveillance procedures during the decade reflecting the growing emphasis on rapid response policing and visible authority in public spaces. The unidentified location and unnamed investigation place the archive within the broader operational culture of mid century American policing rather than a single sensational crime preserving the routine procedural atmosphere of municipal law enforcement during a period of national tension.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 8 silver gelatin photographs likely Midwest or East Coast United States circa 1960s. A uniformed officer wearing a shoulder patch reading "Motorcycle patrol riot control" leads a police dog during a nighttime search outside a large civic building illuminated by streetlights and patrol vehicles. Several scenes show officers standing beside a man seated in the rear compartment of a police cruiser while smoking a cigarette. Additional photographs depict officers entering or exiting the building a sheriff standing inside a county jail entrance and investigators searching stairwells and sidewalks around the stone municipal building. Each print bears the "A.G. Oehler Photographer" stamp in the lower margin indicating professional or departmental photographic documentation for internal use.<br /> <br /> By the late 1960s many municipal departments reorganized patrol systems around riot squads motorcycle enforcement divisions and rapid mobilization units as demonstrations labor actions antiwar protests and urban unrest became recurring features of American public life. Light surface wear and occasional handling marks; overall in very good condition. Rather than focusing on dramatic violence these scenes preserve the quieter operational routines of custody perimeter searches interrogation transport and nighttime investigation that structured everyday police work during the era. unknown

002153In-4, 24p sur peau de vélin. Cachets de la généralité de Paris. Le document mentionne différents personnages des Yvelines. On y retrouve Jean Baldé, vinaigrier à Saint Germain, Jacques Lefevre, boulanger à Saint-Germain et sa femme Catherine Jamme, demeurant rue de Louviers à Saint-Germain-en-Laye (à 2 pas du château). Lefevre et Jamme se sont mariés le 23 octobre 1730 à Saint-Germain. Il est question d'une somme de 200 livres que le couple doit à Baldé mais refuse de payer. Il est fait ensuite mention de maisons appartenant à René Le Breton, après la porte de Poissy, d'une maison appartenant à Pierre Allin, incendiée. Le couple Lefevre les aurait acquises aux enchères et il est question de saisir le couple Lefevre, qui doit payer 6450 livres pour la maison de René Le Breton. Il est aussi fait mention de la rue de Poissy et de la maison du Soleil d'Or, qui était semble-t-il une auberge à l'époque. Le document est signé, vraisemblablement par le greffier qui l'a copié. Document judiciaire important par les petits détails qu'il apporte sur la vie de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, à découvrir.

"Philip Nixon is the president of American Motors the biggest auto concern in the world. On the eve of cornering the US automobile market his corpse is found on the train tracks. Sgt. Gilmore had been asked to act as a bodyguard to the financier. Fortunately Gilmore was a passenger on the train that hit Nixons body.Milton M. Propper 1906-62 was an American devotee of Freeman Wills Crofts and Lynn Brock. The book is the American equivalent of Crofts: a methodical policeman Detective Sergeant Gilmore and Tommy Rankin of the Philadelphia police-- not brilliant but capable and thorough-- testing discrepancies and checking alibis; finance; transport three different train and two cars thundering across New Jersey by night; and plenty of railway timetables. Like his British models Propper handles a complex plot admirably unfolding layer by layer each mysterys solution opening new possibilities. The pure puzzle satisfies because there is no fat. But which character doesnt need to be in the book has no motive and hasnt been suspected when all the other characters have been eliminated Theres your murderer! With Audobon stock soaring under his skillful manipulation with the money world aghast at the significance of the colossal corner the death of Philip Nixon was a calamity. Mangled on the steel rails of the East Shore Express his body yielded no clues. Armed with knowledge of blackmail threats Detective Sergeant Gilmore of the Philadelphia Police took the case with full confidence of pushing it to an obvious and rapid conclusion. But numerous motives appeared and soon the list of potential murderers included gangsters thirsting for revenge the brothers of a betrayed girl a desperate bear speculator and the mans own secretary once before convicted of manslaughter. Who threw the body on the tracks By sheer doggedness and an intelligence that missed no single detail Gilmore solved this thrilling mystery in a way that will delight the keenest reader." -- Nicholas Fuller at "The Grandest Game in the World" blog.
