CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE, March 9, 1934
* Gangster John Dillinger
* Post famous wooden gun escape
* Now in the city where he would be killed
The front page has a one column heading: "Dillinger Seen on South Side; Push Manhunt" Coverage continues on page 4 with related photo. Another related photo is on the back page. (see images) This was probably one of the most famous escapes from a high security jail in United States history.
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 34 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.
