She was 7 years old. Her dad, a chef in Rhinelander, got wind of G-men landing at the local airstrip. A cop friend that he fed in the kitchen told him that they were headed to the Little Bohemia and that Dillinger was there.
He and my grandma worked in the same kitchen at the Oneida Hotel.

Front page of the Rhinelander Daily News (Extra) for April 23, 1934. The entire page is devoted to dispatches about the FBI raid on the John Dillinger hideout. 8-column headline at the top reads DILLINGER ESCAPES.
Before another 4/20 passes us by, today is also the 92nd anniversary of the FBI raid on John Dillinger's hideout at the Little Bohemia Resort near Manitowish Waters, WI.
My mom was at the scene just a few hours after the shootout (!) 🧵1/4

Job's done. I stayed away from the shop all winter, it feels good to get back at it again.
Cover is Italian cow leather and unsigned marbled paper from MN Center for Book Arts. Loose sheet printing, so I did a fan binding.
This was the Italian beef. Cooked unevenly, might benefit by more thawing ahead of time?

I guess you need to be prepared for a Ballroom Blitz.
