The tidy end of Mr X... A jacket and shoes - on Vauxhall Bridge

The tidy end of Mr X..... A jacket and shoes - on Vauxhall Bridge. A man fell to his death in the River Thames on Monday. A man whose last act was to hang his neatly folded jacket carefully over the parapel of Vauxhall Bridge and to place his polished shoes between the bars of the railing. Police have so far failed to discover the name of the man - or even to find his body. He remains the man who died as he lived - methodically. *th June 1960 History of London - Vauxhall / Lambeth

The Tidy End of Mr X - A Haunting Mystery on Vauxhall Bridge

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the enigmatic scene that unfolded on Vauxhall Bridge. It captures a moment frozen in time, revealing an eerie tale of a man whose fate remains shrouded in mystery. The photograph showcases a neatly folded jacket hanging meticulously over the parapet, while polished shoes rest delicately between the bars of the railing. These seemingly mundane objects hold profound significance as they mark the final act of a life cut short. Tragically, it was on that fateful Monday when this unknown man met his demise by plunging into the depths of the River Thames. Astonishingly, despite exhaustive efforts by law enforcement authorities, neither his identity nor his body have been discovered thus far. This haunting image serves as a poignant reminder that even in death, some individuals leave behind traces of their meticulous nature and methodical existence. The unanswered questions surrounding this mysterious figure only deepen our intrigue and fascination with this puzzling case. As we delve into London's history through this snapshot from June 1960, we find ourselves drawn into an unsolved enigma - one where tragedy intertwines with meticulousness and leaves us pondering what led to Mr X's untimely end on Vauxhall Bridge.
