Finger Print and Identification Magazine 1932

May 1932 edition of the "Finger Print and Identification Magazine." No. 11, Vol. 13, 8pp 7"x8-½", full of Lindbergh baby kidnapping articles. This issue is incomplete and only contains the Lindbergh pertinent articles, else very good condition. The kidnapping of Charles Lindbergh and Anne Morrow Lindbergh's 20-month-old son, Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr., occurred on March 1, 1932, from the family's home near Hopewell. The child was taken from his second-floor nursery, and a ransom note demanding $50,000 was left behind. Despite the payment of the ransom, the child was not returned. On May 12, 1932, the boy's body was discovered in a wooded area a few miles from the Lindbergh home. The investigation led to the arrest and conviction of Bruno Richard Hauptmann, a German immigrant carpenter, who was found guilty of murder and executed in 1936. The case became known as the "Crime of the Century" because of its enormous public attention and lasting impact on American criminal law and law enforcement.
