There is a London photographers date stamp on the back dated 1886
The following writing appears on the back of the photo
“I must find a cure for that dreadful disease in Whitechapel.I will keep my knife sharp will strike soon when time is right perhaps in New York”
Dont know if this has come to light over the years or not, any information would be appreciated

Part of the Maybrick hoax or trove?
Not a unused prop from "Time after Time"-- he doesn't resemble David Warner, despite the mention of New York.
Maybe a con by a seller of old photos? Or an Internet hoax.
Need more provenance on the photo.Pat D. https://forum.casebook.org/core/imag...rt/reading.gif
