"No Difference: A Scandal in 1905 New York City (December 13, 1905) - This powerful and provocative illustration from Puck magazine exposes the deep-rooted corruption in New York City's law enforcement. The image depicts Police Officer Platt, standing at the door of an insurance company, accepting a bribe from Richard A. McCurdy. Looking on from the window are James H. Hyde, Francis Hendricks, and John A. McCall, among others, all involved in the scheme. Another officer, Bliss, stands nearby, also holding a thick wad of hush money. The scene is reminiscent of the infamous Tenderloin district, known for its vice and corruption. This illustration, titled "No Difference," was published during a time of growing public outrage over police corruption and calls for reform. The image serves as a stark reminder of the power of money to influence those in positions of authority and the need for transparency and accountability in our institutions." This illustration is a historical record of a significant event in the history of New York City and American law enforcement. It is an important piece of social commentary that sheds light on the pervasive issue of police corruption during this time period. The illustration is a powerful visual representation of the corrupt relationship between law enforcement and the criminal underworld, and serves as a reminder of the importance of ethical conduct and transparency in our institutions.
