Among the lots for sale at Bonham's on June 20 is a 32-page notebook containing the complete poetic works of Miss Bonnie Parker, gangsterette. While she was in jail and separated from partner-in-crime Clyde Barrow, Parker passed the time crafting her magnum opus. But clearly, her life on the lamb was not far behind her. Here's a sample: "Pat O'Neal, at the Paris Wheel/Makes a grab for a hidden 'gat'/McCall let go and Pat sags low/As the 'sub' went rat-tat-tat."
The estimated sale price is $30,000 to $50,000.
