Photos of the second most infamous kidnapping in American history, to that of the Lindbergh baby. The (9) wire photos measure 8" x 10" and are in NRMT condition with some newspaper edits. Frank Sinatra Jr. was 19 years of age when he was snatched from his hotel room at the Harrah's Lake Tahoe in December, 1963. His father paid the $240,000 ransom and Frank Jr. was released 2 days later. All three kidnappers were arrested shortly thereafter and convicted to life sentences. Photos show all three kidnappers as well as a close up of a gold ring with the initials FS, which was found on one of the suspects.
