Original May 3, 1932, edition of The Scranton Times, with the banner headline announcing “Capone To Start 11-Year Term.” Single column article’s headline states “Gang King Gives Up Last Hope; Elaborate Precautions Taken to Insure Safe Delivery at Leavenworth,” with a printed mug shot of Capone to right of article. Central horizontal fold, light overall toning, marginal binding holes to left edge and small tears and paper loss to the very fragile edges, otherwise very good condition.
