Title: John Dillinger Description: John Dillinger (John Herbert Dillinger, 1903-1934?), American's most infamous bank robber of the early 1930s, who, with several others, robbed a dozen banks from 1933 to 1934, and was reportedly shot to death outside the Biograph Theater in Chicago, on the night of July 22, 1934, by FBI agents, although the man shot was killed (or executed) by East Chicago policeman Martin Zarkovich, who was reportedly part of the scheme to set up a "patsy" (James Lawrence, the victim); the autopsy of the dead man and other salient facts indicate that the man shot was most probably not Public Enemy Number One; Dillinger is shown outside his father's farm house in Mooresville, Indiana, after escaping from the Crown Point, Indiana "escape-proof" Jail in early 1934, holding in his right hand a wooden gun he whittled from the top of a washboard and blackened with shoe polish to use in making that escape; the sub machine gun Dillinger cradles under his left arm is authentic.
