I have found a cover from the Illustrated Police News dated 8/12/88 with Osborne Street, George Yard, Bucks Row, Hanbury Street, Berner Street, and Mitre Square in small squares. Millers court is in a large central frame in the centre. None of the pictures look like the picture of Polly from that other site.

Right, they are used on that site, but that same website uses known contemporary illustrations of the victims. Chapman's and Stride's are from the IPN, I'm hoping that this Nichols drawing is also from the Illustrated Police News or something similar, but it is not as of yet sourced anywhere or in the Photo Archive.Originally posted by Mike Covell View PostAs far as I can tell they were created for a website about the murders,

Edit- And I've never seen an IPN with that particular image of Polly, so I have my doubts.

Source for this illustration?
Hi all,
I'm working on a project (more of that later) and need to find a contemporary illustration of Nichols from life ie while alive. Very difficult, as it turns out. All I've found is this:

Does anyone know the source of this illustration? If it's from the time, I'll use it. If it's a mystery, I'll avoid it and come up with something else.
Or if anyone can point me to an illustration of Nichols where the artist rendered her alive, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks,
