1934 Famous photograph of Public Enemy Number One John Dillinger as he poses with his jailers in Crown Point after he was captured. He was brash and unrepentant when he was captured and it actually endeared him to the public, so when he escaped, it was one of the most important moments of the depression era. A rare original of this famous event that presents well despite the condition flaws of a chip, wear and a missing corner section. Dated on the back and issued by Wide World Photos.
