1936 Artistic photograph of Arthur Gooch on the gallows in McAlester, Oklahoma set to die under the new Lindbergh Law. He died for the crime of kidnapping a couple police officers and alter releasing them unharmed. Harsh sentence! A rare image in great shape, this was issued by Acme and fresh out of a newspaper archive. A work of art with a tremendous use of light and shadows.
