    Hooray, Henry!
    Spot on. Galexander's ignorance of Art history would be funny if he were not so arrogant.
    If he wanted a Lautrec model to be Mary Kelly, he could have at least chosen an Irish one, such as May Belfort. Omps no, we know too much about her, as indeed we know about Carmen's modelling career in the 1880s and 90s.

    Simon -

    Hi Gale,

    I notice that there hasn't been any witty repartee between you and Dale Larner.

    Why is that?
    Because neither of them would know how to do it?

    Fernand Cormon was one of the leading historical painters of his day. He was a traditionalist and not an Impressionist like Lautrec.

    Presumably Gaudin posed for Cormon in various period costumes..........?!
    Presumably women who need to make money as prostitutes and models are in a position to pick and choose which artistic school they will or will not pose for? Idiot. Or perhaps she decided she would only pose for painters who seemed a bit Rippery.

    Similarly Alfred Stevens was NOT an Impressionist either. He was famed for painting elegant women in fine attire. Hardly your laundress/part-time prostitute types.
    Stevens was 'NOT' an Impressionst, galex, but neither was Lautrec. Can't you get anything right? You're as ignorant of Art History as you are of the Ripper murders. He was a Post-Impressionist. Quite a big difference, quite an important evolution historically. D'uh! You can look them up in any library or on your favourite primary source, Wikipedia.

    Again Miss Marple could you please quote your sources in future.
    OH MY GOD - the sheer effing chutzpah of YOU making that demand of others. Pompous, ignorant, arrogant hypocrisy. Your theory is garbage, you have no evidence. Give it up and get a life.

    Er, no actually. You are the one claiming that Henri de Toulouse Lautrec was, in some way, involved in the killings. You are the one making the positive assertion. It is up to you to prove your case, not just to your own satisfaction, but to that of others. This you have failed to do. Are you going to post some evidence at some point? I ask because this thread is now getting very long in the tooth, and evidence in support of your assertion has been conspicuously absent.
    Sorry Colin, but with respect no he doesn't...all he needs do is put out some cheap photos on thick cardboard, with minimal text, and the less-critical sector of the 4 to 6 year old market will make him a best-seller...the more demanding child, will of course, gravitate towards the Mr Men...

    Hi Dave,

    My name is my name; and, yes, you would be correct in assuming my parents broke up, but only by dint of my father being blown out of a Lancaster bomber in the skies over Germany.

    Regards,

    Simon

    Dave- I...uhh... knew that. I just wanted to see if you remembered that it had already been discussed. And guess what? You did. Kudos.

    Oh yes, I can just imagine how many parents would gladly part with their earnings for that book. Can't you?

    Although I have no particular love for furry animals [Winnie the Pooh, Paddington Bear and my two dogs excepted], dig around and you may find my [non-Ripper] children's book.

    It's a unique genre which allows room for many truths to be told.
    Hi Simon

    Being relatively new round here, I have no idea of your proper (non-Casebook) name but would I be correct in assuming your parents broke up? (or at least the book suggests it perhaps?)...

    All the best

    Maybe, just maybe, the children the world over will be subjected to the very first JTR primer.
    Hi Callie...but we've already been there:

    (See post 61 onwards...)

    Personally I think it would've been a real moneyspinner...my own kid's would've loved it...had I not...oh...err...hmmm...

    Silly Dave, the two genre's need not necessarily be exclusive. Maybe, just maybe, the children the world over will be subjected to the very first JTR primer.

    Author Author...

    Interestingly the only established author I've been able to discover under the nom de plume G Alexander is a writer of childrens books about furry animals.

    http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...9-cute-animals

    Don't get me wrong...I'm not sure this is you, and in any event, I have nothing against the genre...but is this to be a book about the ripper per se or Diddles?

    All the best

    Pray tell, why is it that you continually admonish people for not providing sources and yet you have not given us one source? You have on several occasions alluded to and/or referenced some source(s) but have yet to produce anything tangible. Why is that?

    It is hard to take your whole premise seriously when the man you purport to have been JTR wasn’t even in the county. Yes, I know, you think he used the clinic as a ruse, which you can’t prove but are nonetheless flouting as the tent pole of your theory. How does that even make sense?

    I think now would be a good time to reevaluate your theory.

    Hi Dave,

    Yes, I guess two people engaged in talking major bollocks would be too much for anyone to endure.
