NEW YORK WORLD-TELEGRAM, December 13, 1934

* Albert Fish captured - arrested ?
* Serial killer, child rapist and cannibal
* "The Boogey Man" - "Gray Man"
* "Brooklyn Vampire" - "Werewolf of Wysteria"


The front page has a three column heading: "BUDD CASE BELIEVED SOLVED; SUSPECT AIDS HUNT FOR GRAVE" with subheads. (see) Very early coverage on Albert Fish being questioned in the Death of Grace Budd. Article continues inside with photo of Budd. Fish's name is not mentioned in this report because reporters were not told of his identity as of yet. (see) I suspect this is one of the few publications to report this particular event as other titles in our inventory do not, probably because he committed his crimes locally. Rare as such.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 56 pages, light even toning, a little spine wear, generally nice.
