Here is an illustration I did for the Lepke Kartel Clothing Co.
Louis "Lepke" Buchalter was an American mobster and head of the Mafia hit squad Murder, Inc. during the 1930s. After Dutch Schultz's request of the Mafia Commission for permission to kill his enemy, U.S. Attorney Thomas Dewey,
the Commission decided to kill Schultz after Schultz disobeyed the
Commission by trying to carry out the hit after it had been rejected.
Buchalter assigned Calabrian immigrant Albert Anastasia to assassinate Schultz.
