Description
Shown is a copy of a clipping from the Los Angeles Evening Herald and Express which was received in a letter addressed to the newspaper. The picture shows Mickey Cohen's face over a bullseye and to the right a question mark over another bullseye. The anonymouse sender had pasted onto the original picture a white arrow pointed at Cohen and, under the question mark, added the words "finish the job on July 29, 49". (File date: July 23, 1949)
