(JOHN DILLINGER) (1903-1934) American bank robber and murderer, in 1933 and 1934, he and his gangs undertook a string of bank robberies in the Midwest, with narrow escapes from the law. His first robbery in 1924 led to a nine year stint in prison. After a jailbreak, he resumed robbing banks until gunned down by the FBI as he exited a Chicago theater, betrayed by the infamous "Lady in Red". An original wanted poster for Dillinger's arrest, measuring 8" square, and showing, on recto, a mugshot, physical description, along with his fingerprints. On verso is a list of agents and their respective contact information. Bears pinholes, some rust spots, and tape remnants on verso from hanging, overall very good. Interestingly, this lot also includes a wooden replica of the gun that Dillinger used when he busted out of prison in Crown Point, Indiana! The gun measures about 5" long, crudely carved from wood as was the original, and bearing "Colt 38" inscribed on the barrel. Very good condition, two pieces. $150-200
