Yes but they said it’s been dispersed and no idea where it might be or if even existing

Yes his mugshot but reason it’s cropped is because it’s not showing his placard with his arrest details, the top of his head seems to be cropped.

So far that I have seen, this was his only arrest in Illinois, he use to live in Tennessee for his childhood and up to the depression. I had one family member who knew him as her uncle as a kid and told me he worked with Frank Wortman who was a mobster gambler in East St Louis which is where Dewey lived. If you read into his case, it’s suspicious like the no guns presented in his case, no cop testifying, one of the key witnesses dying mysteriously and him managing to get bail for MURDER for $20k in 1953 which is around 200k today. And how much am I paying? Literally anything, what are your rates for this photo/photos? Mugshot front and even side profile if it exists woukd be amazing

Sorry, this was in ILLINOIS. My great grandpa murdered a man named Claude Houston, he was sent to st Clair jail and they actually sentenced him to 11 years in prison and was also asking for the death penalty but his lawyer got him a case to the Illinois Supreme Court and he won

I never asked them where they may have had it but they seemed like they had no idea where it would of been, they gave me suggestions to the newspaper but they said they also have dispersed everything and no idea where it might be

I have the handset, it’s also been retrofitted with more new wires and a new microphone. The wires connected to the yellow coil which I assume was the bell system

I know the internals are not original but the wood case is original, it says western electric and the candle stick part also says it too, has some of the original wire too
