THE NEW YORK TIMES, January 18, 1950
* Great Brinks Robbery (Boston, MA)
* Great Brinks Robbery (Boston, MA)
* 1st report of the "Crime of the Century"
* Over 2 Million $$$$ stolen
* Over 2 Million $$$$ stolen
The front page has a two column heading: "$1,000,000 in Cash Seized By 7 Masked Men in Boston" (see images). Nice to have in this famous NYC title. Note: While the headline states $1 million in cash was stolen, the actual take including everything was over 2 million dollars, making it the largest robbery to-date within the United States and earning the title, "The Crime of the Century!"
