EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and intriguing print captures a unique moment in history - a coroner conducting an inquest into the causes and circumstances of a death. Taken in 1936 by Rene Bull, this colour lithograph is part of a series of humorous cigarette cards called "Howlers" produced for Churchman's. In this particular scene, we see the coroner presiding over the inquiry with an air of authority. The room is filled with various characters, including a policeman and other individuals involved in the investigation. The atmosphere is both serious and lighthearted, as evidenced by the presence of humor throughout the image. The vintage card not only serves as an advertisement for Churchman's cigarettes but also offers us a glimpse into legal proceedings during that era. It showcases elements such as evidence exhibits, guns on display, and even a pub setting - all adding to its charm. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate Bull's artistic talent while reflecting on historical practices surrounding death investigations. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, it reminds us of how far our understanding of forensic science has come since then.
