Extremely rare wire photo states on the original paper caption that tells the story of his death at the hands of Melvin Purvis and the FBI. Image shows "Public Enemy #1" at the Crown Point arraignment before he made his famous escape with a gun carved out of soap. International News Photo is 5x7" and EX with perfect contrast.
