Vintage Police Officer in colour - Kingston upon Hull City Police? by Frederick McLean
Via Flickr:
A version hand (not automatic AI) *coloured by me, of an old photograph of a Police Officer with collar number 127.H. The original sepia photo is here:- flic.kr/p/2mcVXdt Unfortunately there is nothing on the photo to indicate his force but the photographer studio was at 149 Beverley Road (opposite Fountain Road), Hull, so it is likely he was in Kingston upon Hull City Police, other photos at that time show similar numbers with a 'H' (although no full stop). * PLEASE NOTE - My coloured images are more sketch or watercolour like than colour transparency or print like. They are an impression of that subject and period, rather than an accurate representation of how the image/subject actually looked when the photo was taken. If there are any errors in the above description please let me know. Thanks. 📷 Any photograph I post on Flickr is an original in my possession, nothing is ever copied/downloaded from another location. 📷 -------------------------------------------------

In April of 1929, the Birth Control Clinical Research Bureau in Greenwich Village was raided by police. They arrested five staff members, confiscated medical records, and tried to bully patients into giving them their names and addresses.
Their tactics backfired. The Bureau and its clinic in Brooklyn received an enormous amount of publicity, and many doctors protested the violation of doctor-patient confidentiality. When the case came to court on April 19, 1929, the judge ruled that the police had exceeded the scope of the search warrant he had issued, and the case was dropped.
Above, Sanger (third from left) and the five arrested staff members after their victory: A.L. Field, Dr. Elizabeth Pissiot, Sanger, Dr. Hanna M. Stone, and Mrs. Marcella Sideri.
