Gangster (1895–1954) during the Prohibition era. His nickname came from his favorite weapon, a Thompson submachine gun. His most famous crime was the kidnapping of oil tycoon and businessman Charles F. Urschel in July 1933. Classic original 1933 news photograph of George 'Machine Gun' Kelly; one of the better photos you will find of this notable gangster. The unsigned 6 x 8 gelatin silver Associated Press photo shows Kelly in prison, 'hand cuffed' to the jail bars. The first generation image is sharp and clean. The back has a light Associated Press stamp, October 3rd 1933 date stamp and the remnants of the caption tag. Used as the original art for a newspaper picture, the back has various standard editorial notes including Kelly's name and “caught in Memphis, Tenn.” In very good condition, with scattered creases, some rippling to edges, missing lower left corner tip, and small area of discoloration to lower right.
