| 説明 | Name: Rolf HalversenArrested for: not givenArrested at: North Shields Police StationArrested on: 15 December 1914Tyne and Wear Archives ref: DX1388-1-258-Rolf HalversenThe Shields Daily News for 2 January 1915 reports: “STEALING BY MEANS OF A TRICK. Yesterday, at North Shields, Rolf Halversen (25), fireman, 31 Duke Street, was charged with stealing 10s by means of a trick from one Catherine Helgaard. The Bench fined defendant 10s and costs”.These images are taken from an album of photographs of prisoners brought before the North Shields Police Court between 1902 and 1916 (TWAM ref. DX1388/1). This set is our selection of the best mugshots taken during the First World War. They have been chosen because of the sharpness and general quality of the images. The album doesn’t record the details of each prisoner’s crimes, just their names and dates of arrest.In order to discover the stories behind the mugshots, staff from Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums visited North Shields Local Studies Library where they carefully searched through microfilm copies of the ‘Shields Daily News’ looking for newspaper reports of the court cases. The newspaper reports have been transcribed and added below each mugshot.Combining these two separate records gives us a fascinating insight into life on the Home Front during the First World War. These images document the lives of people of different ages and backgrounds, both civilians and soldiers. Our purpose here is not to judge them but simply to reflect the realities of their time.(Copyright) We're happy for you to share this digital image within the spirit of The Commons.
