Description

Frank Abagnale

More than 35 years ago, Frank Abagnale was one of the world’s most famous con men, cashing $2.5 million in fraudulent checks in every state and 26 foreign countries over a five-year period. Between the ages of 16 and 21, he successfully posed as an airline pilot, an attorney, a college professor, and a pediatrician. Apprehended by the French police when he was just 21 years old, he served time in French, Swedish, and American prisons for his crimes. After five years he was released on the condition that he would help the federal government, without remuneration, by advising and assisting federal law enforcement agencies. Glossy 10 x 8 photo of Abagnale as a game show contestant, signed and inscribed in black felt tip, “To Juli, F. W. Abagnale, 7/5/06,” over a Frank W. Abagnale Secure Documents Consultant pressed seal. In very fine condition. Accompanied by a color promotional postcard for Catch Me if You Can, the feature film he inspired. RRAuction COA.
