This is likely related to a story about June Robles' classmates writing a letter to her kidnappers pleading for her return. A similar photograph appears with the article, “GO-BETWEEN VEILS TRIP: Robles Aide Hies to Nogales Ransoming of Girl Believed Near in Mexico and Cash Ready Grandfather Gets $15,000 but Remains in Tucson; Officers More Cheery,” Los Angeles Times, 3 May. 1934: 1. Text from newspaper caption: CLASSMATES PLEAD FOR JUNE’S RELEASE In the upper photograph are pictured Grade 2Bclassmates of little June Robles, victim of kidnapers at Tucson, who have childishly scrawled a pathetic message (below) to abductors asking that the child be released. Text from negative sleeve: Robles, June. Kidnap Case 1934.
