Soliai, Is the guy on the far left with his hand waving, Joe Profaci? I was just reading about the Gallo- Profaci war and that kind of looks like him.

Re: Some Old Timers
No idea really.
Re: Some Old Timers
Definitely not Profaci.
Second from right looks like Jimmy Squillante, but could just be the glasses.

No no, not Profaci. To me, it looks like Andrew Torregrossa Jr, a Gambino member. I do not recognize the other three.
Where did you find this pic? Was there any description connected to it?

There you have it, never printed before.
Re: Some Old Timers
Based on the clothes, the styles of glasses, and the table ware, I'd say it comes from the early 1970s. The 2nd person from the left looks familiar, but can't name him on top of my head. Would be good to compare with the FBN Mafia book.
Re: RE: Re: Some Old Timers
The guy on the left does look like someone who I vaguely remember confusing with Joe Profaci before. Wasn't there a picture of a guy wrongly id'd as a younger Profaci? Somehow that's in my memory.

If I didn't have my case coming up, I would like to come back with you gentlemen when this is over with and really lay the law down what is going on in this country.....

Yes all Gambinos, except for the 2nd guy from the right (who I believe could be Anthony Rizzo), who I'm not sure who it is and if he's even made.......Soliai
Re: Some Old Timers
The guy on the far right is wearing a pinky ring!
If they are all Gambino's then the man on the left definitely resembles the picture of Torregrosa from the FBN book.

Re: Some Old Timers
That's the father in the FBN book. The one in the picture that Solai posted is the son.
