DESCRIPTION
Caption on reverse [translation]: "Domei Transmitted International News January 29. Killer of Lindy's Beloved Son to Finally Go to the Electric Chair? (New York) Domei. Although Bruno Hauptmann, the man believed to be the killer of Colonel Lindbergh's beloved son, a crime that captivated all of America, still continues to firmly deny his guilt, the death penalty will finally be carried out in mid-February using the New Jersey state penitentiary's electric chair. Increasing social concern and interest regarding the facts of the incident are being caused by the alibi for Hauptmann provided by a Czech woman who is a naturalized American residing in Chicago, however, as was reported on in a telegram from our firm in Prague. Photograph: Bruno Hauptmann, imprisoned in the New Jersey state penitentiary. [Stamped] February 1936."
