EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases Kate Barker, also known as Ma Barker, a notorious figure in American criminal history. Born around 1871 and meeting her demise in 1935, Ma Barker was the matriarch of the infamous Barker clan of bank robbers. This litho captures her enigmatic persona and serves as a reminder of her involvement with the Barker-Karpis gang. Ma Barker's life came to an end during a fierce gunfight with the FBI, leaving behind a legacy that continues to fascinate crime enthusiasts. Known for her role as the head of this criminal organization, she earned herself the nickname "Ma Baker" due to her commanding presence within the gang. The artist has skillfully depicted Ma Barker's portrait, emphasizing both her strength and cunning nature. The engraving technique used adds depth and texture to this intriguing image. This particular lithograph is part of a private collection but is available for public viewing through Peter Newark American Pictures. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of America's dark underbelly during the early 20th century—a time when organized crime thrived and figures like Ma Barker held sway over their illicit empires. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of one woman's place within this shadowy world of theft, fraudulence, and robbery.
