Tudor Wilkinson

William Tudor Wilkinson (c. 1879〔("Clubman Stole the Fishing Reels." ) ''The Cincinnati Enquirer'', 29 July 1905, p. 1. newspapers.com Retrieved 27 November 2014. 〕 – after 1952), known as Tudor Wilkinson, was an American art collector and amateur dealer who married "the loveliest showgirl in the world", gave Hermann Göring a painting in exchange for his wife's freedom from an internment camp, and stored weapons and radio equipment for the French resistance during the Second World War.
==Early life==
William Tudor Wilkinson was the son of the wealthy merchant and banker John Cabell Wilkinson of Missouri (1846–1910) and Margaret D. Ewing (1852-1926). He was one of seven children of the marriage. With no need to work, he lived a life of leisure and fashion and was once described as the Beau Brummel of St. Louis.〔("William Tudor Wilkinson". ) ''Appeal to Reason'', No. 506, 12 August 1905, p. 1. newspapers.com Retrieved 28 November 2014. 〕 Wilkinson was a member of the Mercantile Club and the Algonquin Golf Club and known as a horseman, polo player and singer.〔("Young Clubman Confesses Theft". ) ''The St. Louis Republican'', 29 July 1905, p. 3. newspapers.com Retrieved 28 November 2014. 〕
In 1905, Wilkinson was convicted of stealing a number of pieces of fishing equipment over several weeks from a St. Louis store. At the time of his arrest at the store he had been planning a fishing trip to Canada and his luggage had already been sent to the railway station. The police went to the station and found four stolen fishing reels in his baggage.〔 According to the ''St. Louis Republican'', Wilkinson told the police that he would not be prosecuted because of his standing in St. Louis. Wilkinson reportedly received a brief prison sentence and a fine.〔 The campaigning political newspaper ''Appeal to Reason'' contrasted the light sentence that he received for the theft with the harsh justice meted out to the poor for lesser offenses.〔
