Original 1947 AP Wire Photo showing a young woman identified in the caption as June Ashbye of Eureka Springs, Arkansas, with Fort Smith Sheriff Prentice Maddox standing behind her. The caption, printed directly on the photograph, states that the woman admitted attempting a bank crime; part of the original caption is obscured by a later handwritten newsroom strip reading "HOLD IT HERE THIS AFTERNOON." Measures approximately 6⅛x9¼ inches. AP stamp on the back. Note the aged tape on the corners, a small amount of emulsion loss on the image, and typical newsroom/archive handling wear. This photo came from the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper.
