Grant Zahajko's Mob, Gangster, True Crime & Criminal Memorabilia Auction will be Held on Sept 10th

OK all you crime collectors out there – stick ‘em up. On Wednesday, September 10, starting at 9am Pacific Time, Grant Zahajko Auctions will hold a Mob, Gangster, True Crime & Criminal Memorabilia auction, with 223 lots featuring many of history’s most notorious crimes and criminals, online and live in the gallery at 510 Morgan Street in Davenport.

"An estate find of Al Capone, "Lucky" Luciano and "Mad Dog" Coll items started the curating of what has turned into a dedicated sale containing fingerprint cards, booking cards, vintage and antique prison keys, Deer Lodge and Walla Walla prison horsehair bridles, letters, postcards, photos, signed books, serial killers, wanted posters and historical memorabilia from infamous individuals," said Grant Zahajko, who curated the sale along with Timothy Gordon Appraisals.

Some of the gangster-related items are from the estate of Gordon Pouliot (1927-2004), a motorcycle police and patrol officer in Southern Florida in the 1950's-1970's. Mr. Pouliot saved some of the items while working in law enforcement and collected others in his travels. All of Pouliot’s items are guaranteed originals and are not reprints, photocopies or facsimiles.

There are three items in the auction that were gifted by the Sicangu Lakota Indian tribe in appreciation for his defending Plenty Horses pro bono. Lot #27 is a pair of beaded moccasins, 10 ¾ inches long (estimate: $2,000-$3,000). Lot #28 is a Sioux stone war club with a total length of 35 inches (estimate: $2,000-$3,000). Lot #29 is another Sioux stone war club, but not as long, at 17 ¾ inches (estimate: $1,000-$1,500). All three of the items are in good to very good condition.
