I checked the picture and looks like you r right about it.Its taken in 1941,thanks for clearing that up @thebigfella.You are right about their relationship before Alcatraz and maybe i should delete Abe from the list.

But theres one old article from the LIFE magazine in 1951 which still gives me the doubts,quote "Ten years ago(meaning in 1941)Abraham enjoyed a good laught with his OLD friend and FORMER client Al Capone..." and also another newspaper article that says Abe had many underworld connections with top figures during the mid 30's.There also reports that Al's mother knew Abe since 1930.Also in 1932 Abe was ivolved in labor relations.

Either way since theres no other hard evidence ill delete Abe from the list.
