Evans Skinner Crime Archive
Picture Library
Robert Smith Literary Agency represents the Evans Skinner Crime Archive, the one-stop shop for all picture and archive researchers working on books, TV documentaries and films that require images relating to Victorian and Edwardian crime and society. The Archive consists of over 8500 books, photographs, illustrations, files, ephemera and memorabilia, predominantly from that era.
Two leading crime historians, Stewart Evans and Keith Skinner, have over several decades developed what is now the largest and highest quality archive of true crime images in the UK, many unavailable from any other source.
The Archive holds the biggest collection by far of images associated with Jack the Ripper, but hundreds of other subjects are covered including Sherlock Holmes, the Constance Kent case (investigated by Mr Whicher), the Ratcliffe Highway murder, the murder at the Red Barn, the Mrs Maybrick case, the Peasenhall murder, Dr Crippen and the Brides in the Bath.
