The ‘Maybrick Diary’ Paper

The Journal

Examining the ‘Diary’ in 1993 Kenneth Rendell noted that ‘the diary is not written in a Victorian diary book but in a scrapbook’ and commented that he had not previously known of such a scrapbook being used as a diary[1].

The Paper

The paper is contained no optical brighteners and is made of a majority of cotton fibres, this is in keeping with the ‘Diary’s’ alleged age[2].
