Can you identify this poor lost soul? A very rare, San Bernardino Sherriff’s Office, Murdered Poster asking for help in identifying an unknown murder victim. Dated 1917, this poster not only gives facts of the victim height, weight, and clothing but also tells the tale of his death in gruesome detail. The victim was found dead near the small desert mining camp of Klondyke, california, which was named after the 1897 Klondyke gold rush. This was a small mining camp in San Bernardino . This is one of perhaps 3 pieces we’ve ever seen from this remote ghost town. Measures 8” x 11” with tear marks along the top edge. -58804
