I was looking through some old papers of my grandfather's from the 1920s, and came across a 6-page biography of Connelly, along with his autograph in an autograph-designated area on the front page. It's called, "One-Eye Connelly - Gate Crasher Supreme - The Only Authoritative Story of His Life." It has a picture of him on front. The biography talks of his early life, and is then divided into humorous and eye-raising stories of his gate-crashing. The tone and language of the stories is hilarious ! At the bottom of one of the pages, it says the biography has been reprinted from Collier's, The National Weekly. Looked for a link to it online, but couldn't find one. I'm sure the library has this archived.
