(History of Aviation : History of Crime) Lot. File of Manuscript material, telegraphs, etc. relating to the Lindbergh baby kidnapping from the privat papers of Mickey Rosner. Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr., the eldest son of Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, was abducted on the evening of March 1, 1932. The Lindbergh's circle of well-connected friends, including Herbert Norman Schwarzkopf, superintendent of the New Jersey State Police and William J. "Wild Bill" Donovan, a WWI hero, later to head the OSS, believed the kidnapping was perpetrated by organized crime figures. They contacted Mickey Rosner, a habitant of the New York demimode reputed to have connections with organized crime and law enforcement, to serve as the Lindberghs' liaison to organized crime. This file contains a near facsimile copy of the original ransom note found by Charles Lindbergh on the evening of the kidnapping - apparently a copy prepared by or for Rosner; an anonymous manuscript letter to Mrs. Lindbergh, dated March 8, 1932, claiming proof that the Lindberghs' maid and butler were involved in the kidnapping, with its original postal cover; a pencil manuscript letter to Charles Lindbergh, all in capitals with its original envelope post marked March 10, 1932, accusing Mickey Rosner of having a role in the kidnapping; a manuscript letter signed "Mrs. H," dated March 10, 1932, to Mickey Rosner, "Of all the Germans in my house 3 were bad in some ways," manuscript and typed letters to Mickey Rosner offering advice and help, dated between March 14 and April 15, 1932; approximately 10 telegraphs sent to the Lindberghs between March 4th and 14th, 1932 by Col. Henry Breckinridge and other official and law enforcement figures. File also contains letters from ca. 1940-1960 relating to Rosner's involvement with Hollywood's Hays office and They Kennedy Justice department (touching on the Lindbergh case). More than 30 letters and telegraphs relating to the Lindbergh kidnapping. Provenance: gift of Mrs. Mickey Rosner.
