EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the image of Internal Revenue Bureau Chemist G. F. Beyer on 14 January 1920. The photo, taken by an American photographer in the 20th century, is part of a private collection. It depicts one of the activities carried out by the Internal Revenue Bureau to enforce prohibition during that era. In this intriguing snapshot, we see a man immersed in his work as he conducts experiments in a laboratory setting. Dressed in a lab coat, G. F. Beyer represents the dedicated scientists who played a crucial role in combating illegal alcohol production and distribution during the Prohibition era. The specific incident depicted here involves uncovering fraudulent practices used by bootleggers to deceive authorities. A half-pint bottle was sold for $1 by a bootlegger who had cleverly reused a steam-off quart stamp from another bottle. However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this particular sample contained nothing more than water colored with burnt sugar. This photograph not only showcases Beyer's expertise but also highlights the importance of scientific analysis and investigation within law enforcement agencies during this tumultuous time in American history. As we gaze at this image from nearly a century ago, we are reminded of how science can be utilized to expose deception and uphold justice even amidst challenging circumstances like prohibition.
