Probably for the US members of this list.
I was reading an article tonight about George "Machine Gun" Kelly as
the dominate gang leader during Prohibition in Memphis. Everyone
knows Capone controlled the Chicago area. And the Sheltons and
Birgers St Louis and Southern Illinois. I always heard that Capone
wouldn't go south of Danville Illinois because the Birgers.
Did anyone ever produce a map of the US as to who controlled or
operated in which areas? Someone must have!
Seemed like it would have been an interesting map!
Take care,
John Day
