“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
Poster offering a $25,000 reward for the ''apprehension and conviction of the kidnapers of Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr.''. The 18-month-old son of Charles and Anne Lindbergh was taken from their New Jersey home on 1 March 1932. A massive search, led by the New Jersey police, ensued; the child was found dead. The poster lists the last four digits of the bills paid to the kidnappers in ransom and urges the public to contact the police if the bills are ''detected''. Moderate chipping to the 17'' x 27'' poster, else very good.
