The original link does not seem to be available.
I use this site:
For £29.95 (about $50) you can get 30 days of
access and 3000 credits or about 600 pages.
Most 19th century newspaper pages cost about
5 credits, the more recent pages, 20th century,
can be 10 or 15 credits.
There are also weekly and yearly packages
available.
Hours of fun.

Welsh Newspapers and Mary Jane Kelly
Thanks for the Welsh Newspapers link !
re the following:
Mary Jane Kellys death...
If you look at the bottom of the first column and the top of the second, it states she lived with a Joseph Kelly of Bethnal Green before? Does anybody know about this? Or do you think they meant Joseph Flemming?

Interesting article here on the Chapman murder. A mixture of accurate and inaccurate information - nothing new there - but the description of the building and yard is more detailed than most and includes reference to the rusty padlock on the shed door being broken (Richardson?) and a supposed sighting of "the murdered woman" with a man presumed to be her killer in "The Bells on Brick Lane". Does anyone know if there was such a place?
Thanks from me, Chris, also (especially as it's free!).

I think it's also true to say that there were for most of the 19th century few illustrations except in publications such as the Illustrated Police News or the Penny Illustrated. Most newspapers would just be straight text.
All the best

If the latter, and anyone knows where I can view news illustrations online, that info would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Archaic

Does anyone know if you get reprints of the newspapers on newsprint?

The pages are actual scans of the newspapers and you can zoom in, print, or save. Some of the newspapers I viewed had a couple of illustrations but I wasn't looking for anything in any of the London newspapers, so I am not sure how they are covered.

Many thanks to Maurice for drawing this to our attention!
