Album Description
I recently found these Bain News Service photos which all depict female police officers. Unfortunately there's no context regarding the photos - it appears they are depicting an idea more than a reality. (Note: captions state "Suffragist posed in police uniform to illustrate woman police concept" It's interesting that photographer would note that she's a 'Suffragist.') See another album "More images of female police officers" for training photos from another source.
