[CRIME – CHICAGO]. – [CAPONE, Al (1899–1947)]. Time Magazine. New York: Time Inc., March 24, 1930. Original printed wraps; bound in cloth. 8vo. With issues spanning Jan. 6, 1930 – Mar. 31, 1930 (damp-soiling to first few issues, not affecting the Capone issue). Though often incorrectly stated as 1930's “Man of the Year" issue, the 24 March 1930 issue of Time was nonetheless a deeply controversial one, as Al Capone at the time was infamous for his gangland activities (most notoriously the St. Valentine's Massacre), and had in fact completed a one-year sentence for possession of a concealed weapon the week before this issue went to press. Less than a month later he was officially named Public Enemy No. 1 by Frank J. Loesch, chairman of the Chicago Crime Commission, and a year later was again hit with a prison sentence for tax evasion.
