Title: Bored at Work?
Post by: fiere redfern on July 10, 2008, 10:57:34 AM
Found this out while I was bored myself and trolling the SomethingAwful forums XD

The London Times Online has started hosting every single back-issue from 1785 to the present day on their website. Registration to the site is required, but free, and hey... there's a LOT of nifty stuff to be found in the newspapers.

http://archive.timesonline.co.uk/tol/archive/ is the link - You can click "Select article" tool in the toolbox on the upper right, click on an article which selects its headline, then click "Save/Print" at the bottom left to get a .jpg if you feel like sharing =)

My contribution: Another Murder in Whitechapel (http://archive.timesonline.co.uk/tol/viewArticle.arc?enterKeywords=&sectionId=1040&selFromDay=01&selFromMonth=01&selFromYear=1785&selToDay=31&selToMonth=12&selToYear=1985&addRefineFilters=@content%3Amurder&removeRefineFilters=&addRefineCat=&addFilters=@content%3Amurder&removeFilters=&addCat=&fromEditionPagination=true&resultNumber=&xmlpath=&toDate=1888-12-31&fromDate=1888-08-01&currentPageNumber=1&resultsPerPage=10&sortBy=%2Barchiveissuedate&viewName=asearticlesppublished&queryKeywords=whitechapel&isDateSearch=false&totalResults=78&topicName=Anti-slavery+society&topicIntroTxt=&pageId=ARCHIVE-The_Times-1888-09-01-05&articleId=ARCHIVE-The_Times-1888-09-01-06-012&pubId=&addIndex=06&searchPage=false&searchArtId=&currPgSmartSet=1)

My mind kept spitting out images from the Jack the Ripper movie while reading it O.o

Thanks Fi! I'm hoping to find something from early days like "'You're Either With Us or You're With the American Terrorists,' Says King."  ;)
