RR Auction: Gangsters, Outlaws, and Lawmen featuring Bonnie and Clyde

Auction Details

Few eras capture the imagination like the heyday of the American outlaw. RR Auction is proud to present a once-in-a-lifetime sale: Gangsters, Outlaws & Lawmen featuring Bonnie and Clyde. This premier auction will feature an extraordinary signed and fingerprinted testimonial from Clyde Barrow, Bonnie Parker’s glasses recovered when her body was moved from the ‘death car,’ and Bonnie’s three-headed snake ring made for her by Clyde. Also included are Al Capone’s pocket watch, a John Dillinger letter, and other autographs from the likes of Lucky Luciano, Bugsy Siegel, and Meyer Lansky. Online pre-bidding will take place from June 16–23, 2017, and a live auction event will be held at 1PM EDT on Saturday, June 24, at the Royal Sonesta in Boston.
