1936 Interesting photograph of a black robbed secret society member in Detroit showing off his stockpile of guns. This man was also a police officer but the back caption notes these guys killed one of their own members for the cardinal sin of beating his wife. Issued by Acme and stamped on the back with a full paper caption, the condition is nice. It is important to note the similarities here between these guys and the Klan which was big at the time!
