“Adam and Eve” 1638 was stolen from Hilligoss Gallery on Sunday. The other crook was, “...a 5-foot-4 blonde in her 40s. She wore a tan trench coat straight out of film noir,” noted the Sun-Times. “The purloined 6- by 4- inch etching was in a 24- by 26- inch frame.”
The killers, I mean robbers, were very quick and were seen on security tapes casing the joint, I mean gallery. Hopefully the piece will be recovered.
