* Wilcox train robbery
Page 2 has a report of the famous Wilcox train robbery by the Hole-In-The-Wall Gang headed: "Train Held Up" "The Express Car Wrecked by Dynamite & the Safe Robbed" with some nice detail (see). Was this event the inspiration for the famous explosion seen in the movie Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid?
Eight pages, some margin tears, a few small archival mends, a bit fragile & must be handled carefully.
