(CRIME.) The Apprehension & Committal to Newgate, of Black Murphy, known by the Name of The Child Stealer! Letterpress broadside, 14 x10 inches; few small nicks at edges; mounted to a slightly larger flexible sheet. London?, circa 1833

  • Notes: Broadside details Black Murphy's nasty attractions to young children. Apparently removed from a scrapbook, as there is another letterpress broadside on the verso of the mounting sheet, giving an account of the gibbeting of Wm. Jobling for murder.
