Prohibition documents that belonged to Al Capone and a bulletproof vest allegedly worn by John Dillinger are among items that once belonged to an eccentric collector that are about to be auctioned, the Chicago Tribune reported.
A number of items that belonged to Harold Rubin are about to go on the auction block at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers in Chicago, the paper said.
Among those items: a bulletproof vest allegedly worn by 1930s gangster Dillinger and a plaster mold of his death mask, prohibition documents, room keys and poker chips that allegedly belonged to Al Capone, along with photos of dead criminals, the Tribune reported.
Rubin, who died in 2007, was known as “Weird Harold” and he owned an adult bookstore, massage parlor and modeling studio on Chicago’s Wabash Avenue, the paper said.
