My friend's grandfather told us that the most prevalent crime then was stealing of fowl and hijacking people's pot of soup from the fire place. Although there were some advanced criminals who engaged in molding fake penny coins. It took them close to a month to mold up a one pound in penny coins.

He said, thinking of stealing a car then was like stealing a ship now. Did they even know how to drive? Who would they even sell it to? Drivers then were highly employed and regarded as skilled workers. None of them will have time for criminal activities.

My friend's grandfather will be 95 this year.
