Granddaughters of mobster selling a collection of artwork, letters, pocket watch and his personal Colt .45 pistol
The life of the notorious mobster Al Capone is back under scrutiny more than seven decades after his death with an online auction in California of some of his most personal effects.
The three living granddaughters of the Prohibition-era gangster known as Scarface are selling a collection of artwork, letters, a diamond encrusted pocket watch and even Capone’s personal Colt .45 pistol among a 174-lot inventory valued at up to $715,000 (£520,810).
