작품 상세

A very rare pair of pencil sketches of the kidnaper just before his execution. “As Bruno Hauptmann Looked To Artist Bottner When First Seated In Death Chair.” In the background is a sketch “To The Jail”. And another, “The Ladder to Hell.” Shows Hauptmann descending the ladder with the Lindbergh Baby in his arms. The second sketch “Preparing Hauptmann Execution” shows the officers strapping his legs and placing the metal cap. Both of these sketches are signed “By L. Pierre Bottner, 4/3/1936, Eye Witness”. The Birmingham Newspaper clipping shows both of these sketches.
