The Toughest Girl Gang of London

#LondonCrime #PeakyBlinders #GirlGangs The most notorious leader of the Forty Elephants was Alice Diamond, who was also known as Diamond Annie for her chunky glittering rings which also doubled as knuckledusters. Alice Diamond was over five-foot eight-inches in height at a time when the average height for a man was five-foot six-inches; and it was said could deliver a punch any man would have envied. It was said that a group of them could strip a store in just an hour, stowing away their ill gotten gain in custom made pockets in their attire. They had a strong penchant for fur coats, the wearing of which became akin to a heraldic device. These 'Artful Dodgers' were not above a little vanity, and would 'legally' purchase the latest expensive fashions with the profits from their stolen goods.
