1920LIST120American 1920. Gelatin silver photograph 5 ½ x 3 ½ inches on Cyko stock photo paper. Very Good. A scarce photograph of a bootlegging operation c. early 1920s.

1932181780East Hartford CT & Palm Beach County FL: 1932-c.1933. A collection of photographs documenting the seizure of illegal moonshine stills in Connecticut and Florida during Prohibition and following its repeal. The photographs are from the library of Ralph A. Johnson a revenue agent for the Bureau of Prohibition and its successor the Bureau of Alcohol Tax Unit. Moonshining flourished under Prohibition and even after its repeal its cheapness - and to some its taste - ensured it continued. Across the New England countryside farms housed industrial-sized moonshine operations. The first nine images show an immense moonshine still with vats and equipment inside a Connecticut barn raided by the Bureau of Prohibition on 14 July 1932. Johnson is shown standing next to an unidentified well-dressed man perhaps the moonshiner. The remaining five images depict a large still in Florida seized by the Alcohol Tax Unit in 1933 showing large copper stills connected to barrels above cooking fires glass carboys for the product and barrels with stove-in tops. Taken by Ernest Kirbell signed in the negative a crime photographer with the Connecticut State Police Department these images document the continued profitability of moonshining after Prohibition's repeal.
