    • 1875, Henry Sampson, A History of Advertising from the Earliest Times (page 392)
      It is now about the foulest specimen extant of that kind of backslum or alley where, a generation back, according to Hood, pigs and Irish were wont to rally. The pigs, except in the form of hocks, "Jerry Lynch" heads, and other portions of bacon, have been removed by Act of Parliament []

References

  • 1873, John Camden Hotten, The Slang Dictionary: "Jerry Lynch, a pig's head pickled. Term usually applied to the long Irish heads which are sent over here for sale in the poorer districts of London, and which are vastly different from the heads of “dairy-fed” porkers."
