Dramatic issue on the execution of Bruno Hauptmann...



Item # 716998

April 03, 1936

THE DAILY MAIL - Extra, Hagerstown, Maryland, April 3, 1936 

* Charles Lindbergh baby kidnapping
* Bruno Hauptmann execution
* Nice headline for display - "same day" report


A quite dramatic front page with the bold banner headline: "BRUNO DIES", and also: "Convicted Murderer Of Lindbergh Baby Goes To The Electric Chair", with a large photo.
Extensive additional coverage is found on inside pages, include a diagram of where the execution took place and a copy of Hauptmann's letter declaring his innocence. See photos for details.
The issue is complete in 16 pages, has a large piece missing from the lower portion of the front page, small holes in the photo, as well as additional disfigurements on inside pages, but the text of the coverage is not impacted. Still rather displayable - and available at a bargain due the the condition problems.

Item from our most recent catalog - #357, released for August, 2025

(Added to Catalog #357 after the hardcopy was released - only available on-line.)
