For those here who are current subscribers to On the Spot after many the Spring 2008 issue is finally on its way. You can get info on back issues and how to subscribe at our website:

Scholarly yet entertaining, On the Spot is the only regularly published magazine in America devoted exclusively to national coverage of crime and crime control during the classic gangster era. Plus, new subscribers still
receive free promo copies of "A Devil Incarnate", the autobiography of Willie Radkay, Alcatraz Inmate #666.

Anyhow, here's the lineup for the current issue:

Johnny on the Spot: The Assassination of John Lazia
by Brian James Beerman
Egan's Rats
by Michael Webb
It's Death to Bonnie and Clyde!
by Sandy Jones and Bob Fischer
George Guy Osborne and the Killing of G-Man Truett E. Rowe
by Rick Mattix
Toni Jo Henry's Date With Death
by Laura James
The Outlaw's Thrill of the Chase: Dillinger's Essex Terraplane 8 in St. Paul, March 1934
by Ellen Poulsen with Sandy Jones
Q.P. McGhee, The Gangster's Mouthpiece
by Robert R. Ernst

Our Summer issue will be an all-Mafia edition but thrill-packed as always. After that, it's back to the usual miscellany.
