1934 Photograph of John Hoffman of Mercer, Wisconsin who was an innocent guest of the Little Bohemia resort when a gun fight erupted between the John Dillinger gang and police officers in which he was caught in the crossfire. Hoffman was wounded but his friend John Boisoneau was killed! A powerful image that puts a human face to the actual crimes committed by Dillinger and this is an example we have never seen before.
