I think this thread is still salvageable.. we could talk about the most interesting mugshots. I agree, Lucky's is pretty much literally the face of Cosa Nostra.
I agree with this, but didn't want to nominate Lucky Luciano and appear self serving.
In one mob documentary (don't we just love those video collages?), a man who met him in the old days said "and you never looked him in the eye....it was weird". I can just imagine. To do what Lucky Luciano accomplished, serial killers needed to fear you. Was Lucky Luciano that dangerous? I think yes when we consider what became of Louis Buchalter.
