B & C were so glorified even before the movie came out to the point that my mom thought they hadn't killed anybody. I, as a kid, had to educate her about that.
My wife and I went to the Texas Rangers Museum in Waco a few years ago. Frank Hammer’s guns that he used against Bonnie & Clyde are on display.
A great museum to visit.
Also, when LBJ stole his first Senate election near Kingsville, Tx in 1948, Hammer was sent alone to break up a riot . He must have been one tough son-of-a-gun.
