"WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS BY THE AUCTIONEER ONCE ALL BIDS HAVE BEEN PROCESSED TO DETERMINE THE WINNER FOR EACH LOT."
Department of Justice letter discussing Al Capone's time in prison, dated 7 November 1930. Letter is written and signed by Supervisor of Paroles Courtland Butler, who interacted with Capone on a daily basis. Letter declines a friend's request to see if Butler can get an autograph from Capone or knows his whereabouts and reads in part, ''…I found him to be a perfect gentleman and way above the average inmate. Confidentially, I believe he is somewhere in Chicago…'' Letter, measuring 8.5'' x 11'' has toning throughout, otherwise very good.
