Rare 1934 photograph of Gangster John Dillinger photographed with his Attorney and Deputy Sherriff Carroll Holley at the famed Crown Point Jail. At the time this photo was taken, Dillinger was hoping for his release on the grounds of being a "Reputable Citizen of Tucson, Arizona". Dillinger as we know would escape from the Jail in Crown Point and ultimately be gunned down on the Streets of Chicago. Beautiful photograph issued by the International News and mounted for publication by a newspaper to a thicker paper. It has some artistic painting but looks great!
