Bank Jesse James robbed. Mason City, Iowa - Bank John Dillinger Robbed

Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and their posse robbed the First National Bank of Mason City in March, 1934. They expected to get $240,000, but because of a teller who deftly handed the robbers stacks of $1s, they only made out with $52,000. Whoops.

Bank is no longer a bank -- it's now the City Center/Kent apartments. But the building still bears the First National Bank name. [Stacy, 08/01/2008]
