The latest Underbelly series tells the story of the razor wars of Sydney in the ’20s and ’30s. Of course it’ll probably paint a nice romanticised picture of organised crime, but at least these guys and gals aren’t around to become celebrities because of it.
I do have to say though, the art deco style in the ads I’ve seen look fantastic!
If you’re interested in the true history of the story, this is a neat snapshot of it.
And here are some portrait shots of some crims of the times taken by the cops – a little different from todays mug shots!
