Twitching eyes. Nervous. CRIMINAL HISTORY Table is blank except for handwritten note in fountain pen: "Notify District Attorney's Office Washington D.C.: 10-23-31" This card was processed on October 23, 1931, the dissemination of his aliases, detailed physical anomalies (such as prominent gold teeth, a severe eye twitch, and a distinct foreign accent), and a substantial $250 reward suggest an active federal and municipal dragnet. In the 1930s, arson was dealt with severity since it put human life at risk in a dense urban environment Value elevated because it includes clear mugshots, interestingly with his eyes closed, a high-value reward ($250), police profiling term, "NATIONALITY Hebrew" (You never see "NATIONALITY Episcopalian" or "NATIONALITY Baptist" on posters), and references to the Bertillon physical measurement system which was phased out shortly after this era. Since he was 50 years old in October 1931, he was born c. 1881. Since he "is Hebrew and speaks with accent." He was surly a first-generation Jewish immigrant, likely arriving during the massive waves of migration from Eastern Europe between 1890 and 1910. Surely his name was not Edward Frank White when he got off the boat. Maybe his last name was "Weiss", which is German and Yiddish for "White." In the mugshots his eyes are shut. This was either a deliberate tactic or a symptom of his physical condition. The text notes his "twitching eyes" and a "nervous disposition." In the 1930s, police cameras used intense, bright flash powder or early high-wattage incandescent bulbs. For someone with a severe, involuntary nervous twitch (blepharospasm), the blinding flash would trigger a powerful, immediate spasm, causing them to shut their eyes at the moment the shutter clicked. But it was also common for seasoned criminals to intentionally blink, grimace, or look down to distort their features and ruin the mugshot, making it harder for the public to recognize them from a flyer. Sometimes the police used spoiled photos because developing film took time and, also, police departments couldn't afford to waste multiple plates of film . .…
