This is an ORIGINAL 10 Most Wanted announcement sent to Police Departments for the infamous serial killer, "Ted Bundy," and two others who were added to the list in February 1978. Along with Bundy were Gary Ronald Warren (Rape, Burglary and Armed Robbery), and William David Smith (Murder, Bank Robbery and Parole Violation).

Bundy was finally executed in Florida's electric chair, but e ven today, it is unknown how many young women this maniac killed, although he did admit to 30! Warren and Smith were both captured shortly after being added to the 10 Most Wanted List.

These FBI/Department of Justice documents bear the FBI/DOJ brand and were sent to Law Enforcement Agencies. This one is from Fort Belvoir and was received by the Office of the Provost Marshal in February of 1978. These announcements were read to Military Police during their pre-shift Guard Mounts (inspection and briefing). Other Wanted Posters of this notoriety have gone for $250 or more! Our low starting price has no reserve!
