I knew a guy who bought an old house. When he removed the wall in a walk in closet, he found a printing press and engraved plates for counterfeiting $10 bills, the large size bills that were in use until about 1929.
About twenty five years back some people bought the house down the road at foreclosure auction. They tore down a wall to do some rehab and found drugs hidden in the wall behind the drywall. Called the police. It made the local news.
There was a rumor that they also found some money, but they did not report that to the police.
—”he found a printing press and engraved plates for counterfeiting $10 bills,”
Cool!
But I’d be worried, Eliot Ness or his offspring would shoot up the house.
