Description
A broadside advertising for a reward for the arrest of James M. Damron, ca. 1889. The item gives a detailed physical description, including chronic catarrh, and list of associations, including visiting "fast houses" and card playing, even though Damron was an attorney. He was wanted for forgery and a $200 reward was offered by Los Angeles County sheriff Martin G. Aguirre. A photo of the suspect is pasted down. With trimmed corners, soiling, stains, and adhesive residue, the general condition is good.
