Description
Available here is an genuine original funeral card for Charlie Richardson (1934–2012), one of the most infamous names in London’s underworld history. Known as the head of the Richardson Gang during the 1960s, Charlie’s name is etched into the legacy of Britain’s most notorious gangland era, alongside the Kray twins.

For the discerning collector of true crime artefacts, gangland ephemera, or rare historical documents, this item represents a unique opportunity to secure an original connection to the Richardson legacy. Serious collectors will recognise the rarity and significance of this offering. Once sold, replacing such an item will be near impossible.
