Scarface Al Capone is the most famous criminal in American history and a figure that has transcended his time and crossed into folklore and legend. When he finally was nailed in 1931 for tax evasion, it was front page news and his mugshot (from an earlier contempt of court violation) became a hot commodity. Issued through Acme and stamped on the back with a full paper caption, this is the only original we have ever handled and it displays well. A creepy yet incredibly cool piece of American history!
