It that one official. Ive seen a pic of him holding up him fucked up claw hand people say its fake or not him. From the conclusions in my on head he was the most powerfull boss in the 60tys on the street in nyc till when ever he was to sick and died 67. He was gambinos sith lord. Type shit just watched starwars. He putt carlo in his boss chair i think. And like people said not one picture betwen 1957 to 67. The ny times have alot of shit watermarked trademard i bet they got them. He didnt go in front of washington like every other boss in the 60tys.
If it's the photo from one of the senate hearings it's real and from John Binders photo collection. He held up the hand which only had 3 main fingers, and his thumb is tucked behind his lapel. I'm not going through the time of linking it as a quick google search will bring it up. It's the most well known photo of him, so I don't know why anyone would say its fake or not him.
He was definitely powerful, Bonanno even acknowledges such in his book. Lucchese & Gambino represented the Americanized "new breed" of Mafiosi that Bonanno felt cared more about money, than upholding LCN values.
