Frankie and Johnny a tale of crime and romance in St Louis
A long, lurid 1922 Western Newspaper Group piece recounts Frankie Baker, a thick-set Black woman of about fifty nine, and Johnny, her lover in St Louis. It narrates how Frankie lured Johnny to a Phoenix hotel hallway, where a quarrel led to Johnny being shot with his own gun and dying days later. The tale references Allen Britt, Grange Blossom balls, and the aftermath celebrated in song as a supposed avenged wrong. The piece then shifts to a mythic Cinderella motif inspired by a Paris slipper tale, describing Thevenard the actor and the tiny slipper that sparked a romance between the poorest cobbler’s apprentice and a humble girl, ending in marriage.
