The Museum of the American Gangster, East Village.
John Dillinger death masks.
Some of the (expired) $2M in gold currency and other items found in two safes in the basement.
Into the basement...
Looking into the steel-reinforced bunker directly under the speakeasy bar...
...where this wire was once rigged to dynamite to blow up the bar above if ever there was a raid. The owners are almost certain that it no longer works. Also, there's no record that the dynamite was ever found.
The bar's original icebox. There's a bunch of cool old labels stuck on the back wall. I wonder what else they kept in here?
Couple of paw prints of the bar's original "basement cat".
