Al Capone's Philco????
#5

It looks like that cell could use some sprucing up, the walls and ceiling could use a new parge coat and new paint, you can see flakes of it coming down on the bed and the floor. In spite of what the Ken Burns Prohibition documentary said Al Capone was arrested, charged, convicted, and send to jail before the tax evasion case in the early 30s. I seem to remember that he was sent to the Eastern State Penn after being convicted on a firearms charge.
