Description

Ten years later, he was sentenced to 14 years imprisonment for fraud and forgery in a case which was thought to have contributed to the Wall Street Crash of 1929. The photograph was commissioned by Hampton & Sons, furnishers and is described in the Bedford Lemere daybook as a retake of BL25234/001.
