John Dillinger hunted in 1934... Verdict - longest racketeering trial to-date...



Item # 690961

May 06, 1934

CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, May 6, 1934

* Outlaw John Dillinger hunted
* Fostoria, Ohio bank robbery
* Chicago racketeering trial - longest criminal trial to-date
* Sapiro and 16 others 
acquitted

The top of page 2 has a one column heading: "DILLINGER HUNT TURNS TO OHIO AFTER ROBBERY" with subheads.
The front page has the full banner heading: "FREE ALL 17 IN RACKET TRIAL", which tells of the verdict in what at the time was the longest criminal trial to-date. Several related photos are found on page 22.
Nice to have both in a Chicago newspaper.
Complete1st section only with 28 pages, this is the "rag edition" printed on very high quality newsprint meant for institutional holdings. In nice condition as such, a few small binding holes at the blank spine.
