Scope and content
This proof from the Richards Studio has the photographer's instructions scribbled on it although the negative itself does not. A wall safe was drilled into a plywood wall on December 5, 1957 with play money shown spilling out of the open safe. The safe was borrowed from Robblee's Safe & Lock Service and had to be returned after shooting was completed. A mysterious man's arm, clad in dark suit, is next to the plywood wall. Photograph ordered by Condon Co., an advertising agency.
