AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'I'm sitting IN the climate-controlled archival room at the Battye Library in central Perth, reading through old Police Gazettes. With a fifty-year buffer maintained to preserve the dignity of extant convicted criminals, the gazettes begin in 1905 and end in 1964. The journals record job availabilities and relate general policing news, but it's the recording of arrests and accompanying mugshots - pictures of wanted men and missing women and children - that I am interested in.'
