The front page has a one column heading: "DILLINGER GANG SPLITS UP; HUNT TRIO IN ST. PAUL" with subhead. (see) More on page 2 with photo of "Baby Face Nelson". Another related photo is ion the back page. (see) Coverage on the famous John Dillinger shootout escape at the Little Bohemia Lodge in Wisconsin. When it comes to gangsters, organized crime, and the nefarious activities born out of the Prohibition and Great Depression eras, no city is more in the forefront of our minds than Chicago - and what better newspaper can be found than the Chicago Tribune, self-proclaimed to be "The World's Greatest Newspaper".
Complete with all 32 pages, this is the "rag edition" printed on very high quality newsprint meant for institutional holdings. In great condition as such, a few small binding holes at the blank spine.
