My what an interesting thread. You don't hear much about any thefts other than stagecoaches and the like...I remember in the 1950's there being a "high-rise" robber in New York, never did hear if the person got caught, but am sure that there were many "inventive" bad guys/gals out there, throughout history. Oh, just remembered the million dollar train robbery of London, England in the 60's? ~Linda~ IF I knew then, what I know now.... I would have done then, what i can't do now.
