You surely have heard of famed actor Victor McLaglen, but you almost certainly never heard of his brother Leopold (there were seven brothers in all!). In 1932, Leopold took Victor to court, suing him for $90,000 in damages, saying that "There's room for only one McLaglen in the United States", and he said that his brother had essentially blackballed him from getting hired. Leopold lost this suit, and six years later, he was arrested and charged with trying to extort a millionaire Hollywood playboy, and he was found guilty, and after he was sent to jail, he claimed he was innocent, and he also said "My brothers wouldn't help me". These three news photos are from both the above events. Two show the brothers in court in 1932, and the other one shows Leopold in 1938 being booked into jail. They are fascinating insights into forgotten Hollywood trivia about the McLaglen brothers! Measurements: from 5" x 7" to 6 1/2" x 8 1/2"Condition: very good to fine.
