Description

Bonnie and Clyde Ambush Road Photo

Vintage original 5.25 x 3 gelatin silver snapshot of the road in Bienville Parish, Louisiana, where Bonnie and Clyde met their deaths on May 23, 1934. The photo shows three spots where law enforcement officers hid and an arrow pointing the trajectory of their car. Pencil notation in an unknown hand on the reverse reads, “Road where Bonnie and Clyde were killed.” The first generation sepia image is crystal clear and detailed. In very good condition, with several noticeable diagonal creases.
