The jewels of the Aga Khan (colour litho)

The jewels of the Aga Khan. With a stolen car in Paris, four masked bandits stopped at Cannes the car in which the Aga Khan was traveling with his wife and, with the machine gun flattened, forced the Indian Nabab to deliver a briefcase with the lady's jewels valued at 300 million lire. The loot includes, among other things, a bracelet of diamonds worth 100 million, a solitaire worth 45 million, rings, necklaces, clasps, brooches, powder holders in gold and platinum... After the attack, the Aga Khan, calm, told the robbers, Take this too! And he handed over the wallet that contained 20,000 francs. Illustration for Courier Sunday, 14 August 1949.
