Bonnie and Claire History Notes
December 04, 2009A visitor from Ecuador, has added their country to the B&CHB League of Nations. The B&C History Blog is proud to be a resource, for so many keenly interested Bonnie & Clyde aficionados, who have viewed this blog now from a total of "62" countries & territories-- and growing. "Welcome" to our new friends from Luxembourg, Kenya, Puerto Rico and Ecuador. Bonnie & Clyde are indeed a remarkable and worldwide phenomenon.
"It's Thursday"-- on the B&CHB!! Look for the latest B&C Poll answers to be posted today. There are many wonderful things happening behind the scenes-- which I hope to be able to comment on a some point. The kind of things I live for in doing this blog. My thanks to a number of individuals (you know who you are)-- for some great B&C stories. Also, please view the "special" announcement-- concerning the upcoming Blanche Barrow Auctions posted below. This is exciting news, for those wishing for the uniquely "rare" opportunity to obtain items from a Barrow Gang member. In addition, don't be surprised if a post or 2 written over some time now-- shows up soon. And, round 2 of the B&C signature expose's is up. This look at yet another"dubious" B&C signature offering, which has appeared without the benefit of provenance-- is now posted along with the article concerning a purported Bonnie Parker signature. Perhaps there's good reason why these unsupported offerings have appeared-- as often things which seem "suspect" are.
These are important times concerning The Bonnie and Clyde Signatures, and defending these genuine and authenticated signatures-- in light of newly "purported" scripts, which are in need of exposure, documentation and denunciation. I've met a valuable new ally in this regard, who passionately fights against "suspect" autograph mills and their practices-- and reports on such openly, apparently to the frustration of those who cannot risk exposing themselves as being less than forthright. This gentleman's You Tube expose's are bold and creative. When this next You Tube report is published concerning a "more than questionable" B&C signatures offering, I will post a link to it here on the B&CHB-- along with my thanks and support for this most worthwhile cause.
And as November 22nd-- marked the 76th anniversary of the Sowers ambush attempt-- a question within the latest 8 B&C Polls now posted blog right>> is dedicated to Sowers. Please give this question and all the new B&C Polls a go. Also-- an update re: Tonya Holly's The Story of Bonnie and Clyde is now available to read.
Also, as the blog has received a renewed flurry of Barrow Gang homosexual keyword approaches-- I would encourage all who visit here for that purpose, to read the August 8th post entitled "Sordid Rumors and Innuendos Exposed". The blog archive can be found blog right>> at the bottom. This issue raises it's ugly head from time to time. I am determined to keep hammering away at what is known, until more pay attention-- and learn to rely less on B&C rumor, and more on B&C fact.
I hope all who visit here, will cast their votes for the B&C Polls. The B&C Polls, a favorite feature of many--are located blog right>> Test your B&C knowledge.Those who wish to take a crack at the November poll contest, please e-mail me with your answers prior to the polls closing. For those who just like to have fun with the polls, please enjoy what I hope are challenging questions for all. All questions, must be answered to qualify for a monthly championship. It's always a matter of pride, in becoming B&CHB Poll Champion.

A "Special" Request-- I've noticed we have a regular visitor to the B&CHB, from West Monroe, LA. If this person could please look up June Wade Taylor (approximately 82 years of age) or her husband Robert Taylor in West Monroe-- and provide current contact info for me via e-mail, I would be most grateful. Mrs. Taylor is important regarding this history for a couple of reasons, and I'd like very much to speak with her.

B&CHB "Terror Watch"-- All For One and One For Hate-- As recent developments prove once again, apparently one individual within the B&C community can be relied upon to lie and hate-- while many around him can't be trusted to know the difference between right and wrong. Therefore I induct The Boodles Message Board into the B&CHB Hall of Shame.
Within the B&C community or anywhere else, liars and those who promote hate, shouldn't be respected or defended. Fortunately the aforementioned and irrelevant Romper Room of hate, is comprised of just a small group of haters. The vast majority of B&C aficionados around the world, are good and caring people-- who only wish to hear of and participate in their favorite history.Concerning some within the B&C community, I trust that in time-- lies will become evident, the blind will see-- and the truth will prevail. I feel it important to say "thank you"-- to all those tolerant enough, to allow for this moral stand to be made.
The B&CHB "Terror Watch" is designed to be a deterrent to all who would promote hate and misinformation concerning B&C History-- "and" those who perpetrate hate against good individuals within the B&C historical community, just for the sake of doing so. Hopefully this feature will rarely be needed.
B&C CD Offer-- "Both" B&C-- The Long Lost FBI Files "and" The Joplin Files are now available for $20 with free shipping within the U.S. These are the "original" CDs I edited and released earlier this year. The Long Lost FBI Files, contain the historic 958 page Dallas FBI Field Office File #26-4114 and The Joplin Files contain the vintage Joplin PD B&C file. Unlike imitators, the Dallas Files available here contain an index-- and "both" complete files have been placed in their proper chronological order for easy researching. To order-- e-mail me at bchistory@optonline.net For overseas orders, I'll calculate fair and fast shipping.
Bonnie & Clyde Lecture Series-- Among my many B&C expressions, I've provided talks for The Dallas Historical Society and twice been a speaker, at the Lorraine Joyner Memorial Authentic B&C Festival Historian's Meeting in Gibsland, Louisiana. I've also provided articles for Bonnie and Clyde's Hideout, the preeminent B&C website-- as well as scores of historical posts here on The B&CHB. For those interested in having me speak concerning B&C, for your Historical Society, College or High School American History course-- please e-mail me for information. I thoroughly enjoy providing insights for B&C get togethers, and will be happy to add my take on B&C History-- for your event as well. I will respond to lecture requests, with a PDF containing my bio, lecture experience and complete details.
