Rag-and-bone man in Paris in 1899 (Photo Eugène Atget) In the UK, 19th-century rag-and-bone men scavenged unwanted rags, bones, metal and other waste from the towns and cities in which they lived. Henry Mayhew's 1851 report London Labour and the London Poor estimates that in London, between 800 and 1,000 "bone-grubbers and rag- gatherers" lived in lodging houses, garrets and "ill-furnished rooms in the lowest neighbourhoods." These bone-grubbers, as they were sometimes known, would typically spend nine or ten hours searching the streets of London for anything of value, before returning to their lodgings to sort whatever they had found.
