OCM Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 A lot of times you can find little interesting stories in these old newspapers. Stuff that gets forgotten. In old binders in the National Archives, before people were watched, stuff was stolen out of the papers, whole headlines taken from historic newspapers, like the Chicago Times with the Dillinger headlines.. Nice fresh news. Hard to keep everything straight anymore- OCM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ineverlistentoFM Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 they used to give samples of Geo Washington's handwriting to "scholars" back in the day, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCM Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Same with Dillinger signature, family would cut his name off family letters and give away or sell. I've seen of these letters sent from prison, with the sig cut out, some still there of course. Clyde & Bonnie carried a typewriter with them ( serious) There is a letter sent to the cops about Ray Hamilton ( think it was ) , Clyde put his fingers in the car grease and made finger prints to prove it was him. Some of Bonnie's poems were typed, some longhand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCM Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) On the B&C newspapers, a hard one to find is the Dallas Star with the B&C headline. It's in the upper right in the second picture. You used to be able to buy this and the Dillinger headline in reproductions, may still. ?? Originals are very pricy I'm sure. Back in the day, like 25 bucks, a LONG time ago. Gets addicting like buying Thompsons....never ending. OCM Some more examples of outlaw paper collectables we had. We had a couple poems that Bonnie did that we got from the Parker family, this is an example of her hand writing. You may or may not of seen this stuff.
