Wanted Poster

Original Wanted Poster reading in part (in English, French and Spanish): "500. Reward for information resulting in the arrest and detention of Paul Hector Corbeil / Montreal."

From the collection of Police Chief Michael Webb (1950-2009). Webb joined the Vinita Park, Missouri police force in 1974 and served until his death in 2009, during which time he purchased crime artifacts from relatives of criminals and law officers. Boasting more than 8,000 wanted posters, pieces of Webb’s collection have been featured in film and displayed at the National Crime and Punishment Museum in Washington.

Measuring approximately 9.5 x 12 inches, the poster exhibits some moderate chipping and tearing to its edges and corners.
