Description

People staging a pretend bank robbery. One robber is behind a teller's window with a gun, one man is kneeling and holding a Tommy gun, and an accomplice lies "dead" on the floor in front of him. Interesting Note. We borrowed a Thompson submachine gun, several long guns and some handguns from the Police department. It was arranged with First Security bank to stage a hold up at their bank Tri-state War Surplus store loaned us Pea Coats. We took a series of pictures, ending with a railroad shootout. A local dentist (Dr Levitt) , who watched this from his office window, told us later he almost got his gun to help the police.
