* Al 'Scarface' Capone indicted

The front page has a one column head: "JURORS INDICT CAPONE, 68 AIDS" with subhead. First report coverage on the possible fall of Al Capone's beer baron enterprise. They would eventually get him on income tax evasion charges that same year.
Complete in 20 pages, the rag edition printed on very high-quality paper for institutional holding, very nice condition.
