Kosminski appearance?
You should be careful with this one chaps...
It may seem harmless but we all know that Right-wing organizations have twisted Rob Houses projections and theories on Kosminski for anti -semitic purposes.
However as i know that you are all jolly fine people (even the Welsh one) we'll keep this in the family..
What we know from Rob House research is that Kosminski did not come from a poor jewish family. By the standards of the day i think we can safely say wealthy Tailoring family.
Fact: We know aaron Kosminski suffered from Schizophrenia.
Fact: We know that male schitzophenics are often highly, even very high, academic achievers in their early teens. Likely to be loaners or apart from family groups. The first psychotic episodes are likely to take place late teens early twenties (usually about twenty one twenty two) which fits perfectly with what we know about Aaron.
So the Berner Club radical idea would seem to fit..perhaps Aaron was part of a gang? But a political radical might fit.
What would be more useful to know is could Aaron have had a Brown Mostache?
Not did he have a traditional jewish beard.
It is of course possible that Kosminski fitted the Carroty Mostache descriptions by many suspects. Or if grey hunter's book is to be believed perhaps we should take Elizabeth Longs description more seriously: dark complexioned, and wearing a brown dear stalker hat. She thought he was wearing a dark coat, but could not be sure...he was not much taller than Annie Chapman.
It would be useful to know if anyone has traced any descendants of Aaron Kosminski (apart from Mrs Shine) Is this still in hand?
A family similarity would be useful, as it is unlikely photos of Aaron will ever emerge.
