The Police gazette

The Police gazette originated from the work of Sir John Fielding (d. 1780), and his half-brother, the novelist, Henry Fielding (1707-1754) in 18th century London. As well as serving as magistrates and presiding over the introduction of a small number of paid constables, they experimented in the apprehension of criminals through the use of public advertising and the circulation of details of offenders to other justices throughout the country. The Metropolitan Police took over the publication of the Police Gazette in 1883 and the journal continues today. Despite the large number of copies produced of the Police Gazette and its predecessors, no complete run exists. The aim of this microfilm project is to assemble a 149 year run of the journal from 1752 through to 1900 by filming various scattered holdings.
