DUMB CRIMINALS: Just a small sampler of crooked doings in our largely upright, law-abiding industry over the past 50 years.
1995: Three employees of Thomson Lithograph in Fremont, CA, were nailed by federal agents for counterfeiting. They had churned out $26 million worth of $20, $50 and $100 bills when the bust went down. 1963: Ralph Brunet of Frankfurt, IN, gets hauled away after authorities seize $1.5 million in bogus bucks. Also in 1963: Three desperadoes tried to make off with the $6,000 payroll of Fast Typesetters, but employees pelted them with lead type and tools before resorting to fisticuffs.
