FR Herald News on Andrew Borden Portrait Find

paper2

I am happy to announce that today the Fall River Herald News has done a rather lengthy piece on The Hatchet’s discovery of the previously unknown Andrew Borden portrait (see below for other blog entries on this remarkable image). The story on how it was found can be read in this issue of The Hatchet.

It really was a stroke of good luck and keen eyes. I guess I have always been on the lookout for all things Borden, and when I saw the image I was excited and skeptical. It wasn’t until I had other Borden scholars take a gander and they likewise considered this Andrew that I approached the Fall River Historical Society for authentication.

Thanks go to Deborah Allard for the great article and to Michael Brimbau for sending me the image of the article above and buying me lots of copies of today’s paper!

Mondo Lizzie Borden, Episode 7: NOT Lizzie Borden

Being a collector of the weird and fabulous as it relates to the Borden case, I have files of these images saved during the past twenty years. And I would like to share them with you now. Laugh, gasp, chuckle, or rage, these photos were all on eBay. For a price. I used to write the sellers and let them know they didn’t have a Lizzie, but soon gave up on that practice. They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.

Here we go. Enjoy.
