The Illustrated Police News - September 28, 1889
Description
This illustration from Illustrated Police News details the process of Jack the Ripper. The illustration added a face to a name, and contributed to the rapid spread of fear by adding traits to the killer, such as his ‘daring’ attempts and his silent footsteps. The illustration also mentions Dr. Forbes Winslow, a well-known psychiatrist in the Ripper case, further legitimizing these claims.
