The Kansas City massacre was the shootout and murder of four law enforcement officers and a criminal fugitive at the Union Station railroad depot in Kansas City, Missouri, on the morning of June 17, 1933. It occurred as part of the attempt by a gang led by Vernon Miller to free Frank "Jelly" Nash, a federal prisoner. At the time, Nash was in the custody of several law enforcement officers who were returning him to the U.S. Penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kansas, from which he had escaped three years earlier.Pedigree: For historic items like this I'm including a certificate of authenticity as well as a pedigree of the item. This FBI wanted poster comes from the Ted Jones estate out of Oklahoma. Ted Jones was the county sheriff and founder of the Waynoka Air and Rail Museum, an avid collector, he inherited these in the early 2000s after the passing of his father.This warrant has been inspected for age, material, and print quality, against other originals taken from the FBI's database. The material is accurate for the time matching both the size and composition. The print quality does not show excess printing indicative of photostatic copies and the writing at the top of the print was written by hand, not printed (and is consistent across all 50 posters for composition but not location or material). The stamping on the back matches the stamping used at the time as well. As always, all purchases are covered by my 150% guarantee and have a lifetime pledge of authenticity.
