Description

John Dillinger ultra rare matchbook Little Bohemia 1930’s

Great historical piece from the time period and with a great look of the inside of the Little Bohemia Lodge and map of the area.

Little Bohemia Lodge is a rural vacation lodge and restaurant located off US Highway 51 in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin. The lodge was built in 1929 by Emil Wanatka on land he acquired that same year. Little Bohemia gained fame and infamy as the setting of a botched raid by the FBI (then called the Division of Investigation) against the John Dillinger Gang.

The historic rustic lodge remains as it was at the time of the federal raid and along with original bullet holes from the gun battle still in the walls and windows, Little Bohemia Lodge has a collection of memorabilia from the gun battle.

This story will never die, great collectors item, most daring Bank Robber in modern history. He courted women, took them dancing, race tracks, beaches while robbing banks, this will never happen again in our lifetime!
