    March 1930 Chicago press photo of Al Capone. Photo was taken around the time that Capone was "Public Enemy Number 1".

    Early press photos are very collectible and some carry a high value. The great part about press photos is that they usually have caption information, so that guess work about the image isn't required.

    Reproduction of my photos is prohibited.

      Yeah and I think Gerald's career went down with the hype.

      Is it wrong to get excited about photos and history of the gangsters,( I mean the real ones fro this era, because I find them very interesting.
      Thank you for sharing.

      Thanks for looking lori.

      Geraldo IS hype-- I had an interesting interaction with him during the Iraq War.

      I watched the new Capone movie. His last year alive was hell, the syphilis gave him brain damage and killed him.
