Striking illustrations show Charles A. Lindbergh Jr in varied moods captured by his father before the kidnapping on March 1. The images reveal anxiety in the youngster’s expressions despite affectionate framing.
New Jersey detectives re enact the child kidnapping scene from the Lindbergh case set at the mountain home of Col and Mrs Charles A Lindbergh Hopewell New Jersey. A ladder aided entry to the nursery on the second floor where the baby was taken from his crib.
The piece surveys the Lindbergh family with images from the 1931 Orient voyage of Col and Mrs Lindbergh and the couple’s return reception in China and Japan. It also shows refueling in flight, the Lindberghs in flying outfits, “Little Lindy” as an infant, their airborne habits, and the Sourland Mountain home from which the baby was kidnapped on March 1.
For months Betty Gow cared for Charles A Lindbergh Jr but kidnappers took the child March 1 while she was away. Authorities questioned her repeatedly though officials stated she knew nothing of the abduction.
