"The mug shots on this site were all taken in New Castle, Pennsylvania, between 1930 and 1959, and were rescued from the trash when the town's police department threw them out. The information that has been used to reconstruct the stories behind the pictures comes mostly from old copies of the local paper, the New Castle News." - Small Town Noir

Interesting mug shots from another time and they do make you wonder about the person in them and/or the story behind them.
