Anastasia.JPG (269 × 371 pixels, file size: 23 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)
a police mugshot of New York mobster Albert Anastasia as appearing in Stephen Fox's "Blood and Power: Organized Crime in Twentieth Century America". I believe the photo, from the collections of the Municipal of the City of New York, falls under fair use as a historically significant photo of a famous individual and used for informational purposes.
This media is a booking photo, more commonly known as a
