Description

Vincenzo Colosimo ( February 16, 1878 – May 11, 1920), known as James "Big Jim" Colosimo or as "Diamond Jim", was an Italian- American Mafia Crime boss who emigrated from Calabria, Italy, in 1895, and built a criminal empire in Chicago based on prostitution, gambling, and racketeering. He gained power through petty crime and by heading a chain of brothels. From about 1902 until his death in 1920, he led a gang that became known after his death as the Chicago Outfit Johnny Torrio was an enforcer whom Colosimo imported in 1909 from New York and who seized control after his death. Al Capone, a Torrio henchman, allegedly was directly involved in the murder.

This very beautiful modern copy of the original add for his restaurent in Chicago. Something very mobster about these adds. They are just wonderful.

Colosimo's Cafe was opened by "Big Jim" Colosimo in 1910. Colosimo was the head of the Chicago Mob until he was gunned down at his Cafe in 1920. Afterwards Johnny Torrio and Al Capone took over. Big Jim Colosimo was a mentor to Al Capone. Capone spent a lot of time at Colosimo's Cafe.
