A photograph of Joseph Lawende in 1899

[PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR 1]

I have been asking him to say how a sailor looks like and he didn't answer..


Wooh what do you know, as if the Kosminski described by the Police whether Aaron or not, was not an insane and sexual maniac..



TB

Where is your evidence that Aaron Kosminski or any other Kosminski in London was a sexual maniac?

Sailors wore waist-length, loose jackets which were open at the front, and silk neckerchiefs.

Strange then that I’ve looked at around 100 photographs to date of Victorian sailors and not one of them was wearing a loose jacket.

Are you suggesting that I made it up again?

I’m sensing that you’ve found a picture of a sailor in a loose jacket it lieu of some perceived “ah” moment. But you previous claimed that sailors wore ‘salt and pepper’ jackets. Which you made up.

I have not made anything up.

Anyone can research this subject online and see considerably more than one picture of a sailor in a loose jacket.

There are many illustrations online of nineteenth-century sailors wearing waist-length, loose jackets which are open at the front, exactly as I have described them.

I am sensing that you are not going to deny that.

Even after all this time…..nothing on your salt and pepper nonsense? Where you hoping I’d forget?

Strange then that when I looked at the illustrations on a specialist website dealing with sailors' dress in the nineteenth century, most showed them with waist-length, loose jackets which were open at the front, exactly as I had described them:











































And from some other websites:








































































































That makes a total of 13 (plus one I could not upload) - and all with waist-length, loose jackets which were open at the front, exactly as I had described a sailor's outfit.

And you looked at a hundred but could not find a single one matching my description??

I don’t know if it’s just me, but there are no photographs shown on my screen. Just blank spaces.

Lets get real here. A ‘loose jacket’ is not a description of a type of jacket in any shape, way or form. It is simply the description of the jackets fit. If I’d seen you and told someone: “ I saw PI and he was wearing a loose fitting jacket,” do you think that they could have gone away and produced the same type of jacket that you were wearing? Of course not. Not more that I could have found a pair of shoes exactly like yours had I said:”PI was wearing size 10’s.” Please be serious.

You also repeatedly, and I do mean repeatedly, claimed that sailors were known to have worn ‘salt and pepper’ jackets. I challenged you to produce one iota of evidence for this.

You haven’t. Of course.

I would be interested to know whether other members can see the illustrations I uploaded.

I can see all 13.

The illustrations show loose-fitting jackets.

They are not buttoned at the front and most of them are so loose that it would obviously have been impossible to button them up.

They are crafted in such a way as to be worn loose-fitting.

The fact that vast numbers of sailors in the nineteenth century wore loose jackets, that Lawende said the suspect wore a loose jacket, and the fact that Lawende said that the man had the appearance of a sailor, are obviously interconnected.

I suggest that is obvious to anyone with an open mind.

There is no such thing as a jacket that is so loose that it couldn’t be buttoned up. That’s a strange claim to say the least.

So what? Baggy trousers are designed to be baggy but if you described someone as wearing baggy trousers you wouldn’t be describing a specific pair. Just that they were baggy. They could have been of numerous different materials, styles and colours. How can you not understand this?

Absolute nonsense. Again……’loose’ describes the fitting not the style.

I suggest that is obvious to anyone with an open mind.

Anyone with a mind, open or closed, can see that you’re utterly wrong.

I suppose that I’m lying about not being able to see the photographs? All I can see is a massive gap. Try posting them again.

No response on the ‘salt and pepper’ thing? I’m not surprised that you’re trying to distance yourself from that one. You should do the same with the above. Save at least a bit of face.

It is quite obvious that they were tailored so as not to be buttoned up, which is why those seen wearing them are wearing them unbuttoned.

Again, I suggest the two things are connected.

Most of the illustrations I posted can be viewed by entering nineteenth century sailor uniforms in a Google search engine.

Post #354 you said

Someone answers and the appreciation they get is 'google it instead'. Charming

I was trying to be helpful.

I was told that the illustrations were not appearing on this page and on trying another browser, I had the same misfortune.

I don't know what else I could have done but refer to the source I suggested.
