Description

Al Capone’s chief rival

Partial DS, signed “George Moran,” one page, 7.75 x 2.25, November 28, 1938. Signed in the upper right by Moran, and countersigned by a notary public. Matted and framed with an image of Moran and the aftermath of the St. Valentine’s Day massacre, as well as an engraved plaque retelling the bloody event to an overall size of 25.5 x 16. In fine condition. Signed less than two years after Moran and his men wrought vengeance on Machine Gun Jack McGurn, one of the organizers of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, this document bears a crisp, neat signature from the seldom-encountered Moran—only the third instance in which we’ve offered the notorious Chicago Prohibition-era gangster. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
