From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 1 features a Postman delivering mail to a maid. Much like postal service contemporaneously, the postal service in the Victorian Period required postmen to walk great lengths. The postman outfit featured a military style frock coat and waistcoat with a red collar. This style was to be constant until 1910. The maid featured most likely worked for a middle class family as evidenced by the type of house in the background. Such an image paints a more positive view of relations with police officers during this period.

From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 2 features a policeman talking to a maid in London, England. Known as "Bobbies", modern policeman were relatively new to England, and were established in 1856. Policing formed after the industrial revolution as a result of increased pressure on society and violence. Policemen were typically of lower classes, and had labor related occupations. Due to the industrial revolution, and increased mechanization, less laborers were need, thus became police officers (Taylor 48). The maid featured most likely worked for a middle class family as evidenced by the type of house in the background. Such an image paints a more positive view of relations with police officers during this period.

From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 3 features a girl offering a flower to a gentleman outside of Westminster Abbey. Flower girls moved up and down the streets with heavy cane baskets full of flowers. Henry Mayhew described two types of Flower Girls in his 1861 report on London Labour and the London Poor. The first, considered a "better class" of flower girls, worked very hard in wealthier areas, giving the money they earned to their parents. The second, were women who dressed coquettishly and took to the street later in the night, near theaters and casinos. This type would use selling flowers as a pretense to meet men for “immoral purposes”, and gave flowers girls a negative stereotype.

From the Peacock "pictorette" Post Card Series, Figure 6 features a crossing sweeper asking for gratuity from a lady near Trafalgar Square in London, England. Street sweepers would clear a path ahead of a person in exchange for money, and were a common site in cities throughout Europe. Cities at the time were very dirty due to horse-drawn carriages and overcrowding. Typically it was a low class child, and many considered them to be a nuisance. One account describes street sweeping as "one of those occupations resorted to as an excuse for begging" and it was punished with imprisonment (Mayhew 465). Trafalgar Square, located in the center of the city, features Nelson's Column in the center. Four lions surround Nelson's Column. Early construction of the square began in 1840, and Nelson's Column was completed in 1867. References A related resource that is referenced, cited, or otherwise pointed to by the described resource.
