November 19, 1957

TAUNTON DAILY GAZETTE, Massachusetts, November 19, 1957

* Ed Gein caught & arrested
* Murderer and body snatcher
* Plainfield, Wisconsin butcher


Near the bottom of the front page has a column heading: "'Headhunter' Facing Test" with photo of Gein under arrest and small heading: "Returns To Murder Scene" Also a small photo of Bernice Worden, murder victim. (see) First report coverage on the capture of Ed Gein, infamous serial killer and grave robber. Nice to have this report on the front page as most titles we encounter have them on inside pages. His killings, collecting of corpses and what he did with those bodies where portrayed in many movies including "Psycho" and "Silence of the Lambs" .
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 16 pages, light toning and minor wear at the margins, generally nice.
