GODFATHER GAME: THE LEGEND OF "CRAZY" JOE GALLO - A FREE EXHIBITION

396 BROOME STREET, LITTLE ITALY, NYC (I-Newswire) November 18, 2010 - NEW YORK CITY -

Gangland’s notorious past is present at a new gallery retrospective on the life and times of enigmatic gang leader Joey Gallo, mere steps away from the spot where “Crazy Joe" fell.

Among the items on display through early 2011 are vivid photographs from Gallo's personal album as well as notebooks and letters confiscated from Gallo during a 10-year prison sentence.

Four decades after the fact, Gallo’s slaying remains unsolved – but theories are plentiful. Some say revenge for a pastry shop burglary. Others point to older scores, belatedly settled with bullets. But even as Gallo lay bleeding on asphalt, his legend lived and breathed in the streets of New York City.

MOB SCENE offers revolving exhibits of gangland history in contrast with Hollywood versions of the underworld. Hosted by Casino /Analyze This/Kill The Irishman actor Vinny Vella Sr., a Little Italy native.

WHERE: 396 Broome Street – between Mulberry & Centre Market.

With an unobstructed view of old Police Headquarters, MOB Scene sits beside the former NYPD evidence vault where the heroin seized during the 'French Connection' case mysteriously vanished in the early 1970s.

In 1912, the gallery was a pool hall called "Little Rock", a hangout of top underworld figures and where the NYPD's "Killer Cop" Charles Becker brutally maimed two neighborhood youths -- three years before he was executed in the Sing Sing electric chair.
WHEN: Nov. 19, 2010: Open to the Public
ADMISSION: Free
