If any of you know about The Smoking Gun, you know that it's a website that, every week, posts mugshots of convicts of the most humorous variety. Well, this link is certainly not to the Smoking gun, but it is relevant to our interests; mugshots from the Edwardian era! (not Victorian, but close enough): http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1260872/Ancestry-Edwardian-Englands-drunkards.html

Check out this mug!
