Set of 6000 Fingerprints Fifty-one bundles of fingerprint cards, known as "the 6,000-set" (actually consists of 5,651 cards). These fingerprints were probably taken from visitors to the Anthropometric Laboratory in Kensington. It is believed that the "300-set" (see GALTON/2/9/6/11/2) were selected from an original set of 6,000 cards, of which these are the remainder. 1890s
