The story behind the piece
On the morning of February 14, 1929, seven men tied to Bugs Moran's North Side gang were lined up against the wall of a garage on North Clark Street in Chicago and shot by gunmen dressed as police officers.
No one was ever convicted, but the city blamed Capone. The killings shocked the nation, turned public opinion against the gangs and put the federal government on Capone's trail. This commemorative design captures the day Chicago's beer wars went too far.
