Brick Pic of the Day: Prohibition & New Jersey 1930
Image: K Parvis Magna
New Jersey residents welcomed Prohibition at first. Many residents thought it would reduce crime, improve health, increase safety and raise public morality. But New Jersey quickly became a hotbed for illegal alcohol or moonshine. The promised benefits of Prohibition never occurred. It actually created more problems than problems being solved. Crime organizations were quick to jump in to be a part of the profits. They were the go-to people if you needed something more “specific”.

My name is Keith and I am a AFOL. Currently an expat living out in Basel, CH, but have a firm footing back in the UK when time permits.
I have had had Lego ever since I can remember - and only until my wee one came along have I re-kindled the flame for building again.
I also run matchbox1-75.co.uk, a resource site for the 1-75 series of miniatures by Matchbox.
There are only three themes that I am get/collect (finances permitting) - City, Creator (Advanced and Expert) as well as the classic Star Wars sets from Eps IV to VI (anything else does not exist). I also keep an eye in Europe with ample chance to see how France, Germany and Switzerland market and offer LEGO.
