Philip John Marcuzzi, also known as Phil the Scot, is a Scottish-born Italian-American mobster who is a caporegime in the Scardino crime family. He is also an older brother of Morag McLaughlin, the second in command of the McLaughlin syndicate, and a younger brother of Salvatore Marcuzzi, the current boss of the Marcuzzi crime family. Born in 1960 in Loch Loud, Scotland, Phil is the second child of an Italian father, John Marcuzzi, who was then the underboss of the Marcuzzi crime family in Loch Loud, and later became the boss in 1975, and a Half Italian and Half-Scottish mother, Olivia Marcuzzi (nee Rubino), who was the caretaker of Loud Castle. Through his father, Phil is descended from the Marcuzzi clan, a Sicilian Mafia clan that emigrated from San Leoluca, Agrigento, Sicily, Italy during the rule of Benito Mussolini, and settled in Glasgow, where they had established connections that stretch back to the 1900s, leading to the establishment of the Marcuzzi crime family, with Phil's grandfather, Giacomo Marcuzzi, becoming its first boss. During his childhood, he and his family would visit the United States, Canada, Italy, and Australia and meet various Mafia families, including the Scardino family of Great Lakes City, the Corsaro family of Utrecht City, and the Five Families of New York, and during Phil's high school senior years, he worked part-time for his father, doing jobs such as collecting money, committing acts of violence, etc.
Morag McLaughlin, Phil's younger sister
In 1978, Phil immigrated to the United States, and settled in Great Lakes City, where he got a job working as a waiter for Scardino's Restaurant, and attended Saint Joseph's University, graduating with a Bachelor of Economics in 1982. After his graduation, Phil began working full-time for the Scardino crime family as an associate, and was involved in illegal bookmaking, and drug dealing. In 1983, Phil murdered a Scardino associate named Zack Schmidt, after it was discovered that he was an informant. Despite being a quarter Scottish, the Scardinos decided to induct him as a made man, regarding him as an outstanding earner, and as someone who is loyal to the family. He was inducted into the Scardino family in 1984, at a house in Fairway, with his father, and his older brother, being present at the ceremony, and Phil became a soldier in the Sicilian "Zip" crew, led by Scardino capo Angelo Mercurio. He is one of many Zips brought to the United States by the Scardino family, though he is the only one who did not emigrate from Italy. The Zips respected Phil, despite him being quarter Scottish, due to his family’s reputation and his own violent streak. After he became a made man, he opened up a bar in Great Lakes City called The Scottish Dragon, inspired by Loch Loud's history. In 1997, Phil was promoted to caporegime to replace Mercurio after he died. He also helped Victor Martini and Jimmy Scardino get inducted into the family. In June, 1998, Phil travelled to New York City with his family, including Sal and Morag, and attended the wedding of Lucius Loud and Margaret Carroll, attending the ceremony at St. Patrick's Cathedral, and the wedding reception at the Plaza Hotel. Due to his Scottish heritage, and ruthless nature, some of his colleagues within the family, notably Victor Martini, Jason Navarro, Henry Terranova, and Joe Cinello, refer to him with derisive nicknames like "Scottish Zip", "Scottish Mutt", "Scotty McZip", "The Zip from Scotland", "The Loch Loud Zip", etc. Phil Marcuzzi is loosely based on Gerlando Sciascia, a capo in the Bonanno crime family who represented the Montreal-based Rizzuto crime family in New York.
Gerlando “George from Canada” Sciascia, the main inspiration for Phil Marcuzzi

THE DEATH-FACE/SKULL ART OF THE BRITISH UNDERGROUND PRESS.
PIC INFO: Spotlight on "International Times" underground newspaper, published September 9-23, 1972, featuring stories on the Windsor Free Festival, Black Panthers, Lennon-Ono, the American Mafia, and more.
""IT" ran from 1966 until 1974, and its staff and content changed as the counterculture grew and became, on the one hand, more commercial, on the other, more radical. This is one of the last truly hippie issues from March 1968, just before the radical events of May in France that year."

Albert Anastasia Escaped the Electric Chair to Die in a Barber Chair True Crime | True Crime Podcasts on Youtube | True Crime Documentary Albert Anastasia (born “Anastasio,” the masculine form of the Italian name) was a mobster who came out of the tough streets of Lower Manhattan to run one of the Five Families of La Cosa Nostra through the first half of the 20th century. Along the way, he built a reputation as one of the Mob’s most feared killers. Anastasia was reportedly a member of Murder Incorporated, the kill-for-hire crew that worked for Charlie “Lucky” Luciano and others in the years of Prohibition. Anastasia was, according to reports, one of the four men in 1931 who assassinated Giuseppe “Joe the Boss” Masseria, a powerful Mob boss, in the bloody gang rivalry known as the Castellammarese War. Anastasia was charged in three murders – in 1928, 1932 and 1933 – but in each case, witnesses either disappeared or refused to testify. Two other high-level Mob informants, both under police custody, died before their testimony helped bring Anastasia to trial, in 1941 and 1942. During World War II, Anastasia joined the U.S. Army. He also reportedly helped engineer the deal that eventually allowed Luciano, then ostensibly serving a life sentence for multiple prostitution-related convictions, to get out of prison (and go into exile in Italy) in exchange for keeping the New York City docks free of wartime Nazi infiltration. Anastasia worked for the Army training longshoremen on the East Coast. In 1943, he received U.S. citizenship for his military service, and he was honorably discharged from the Army in 1944. Eventually, Gambino moved against his sometime family boss. Anastasia was gunned down while he was sitting in a barber chair in Manhattan. Gambino assumed the family leadership, which would eventually become known as the Gambino crime family.

Those are absolutely two of my favorite pictures of Elvis. Of course I like the details and all the info I can get on the pictures. One thing I have to say is that in that moment Elvis was in his 7th season at the International Hotel in Las Vegas (August 4th - September 4th 1972), and it was the first time he brought Linda Thompson to accompany him during the concerts (prior to that she had only accompanied Elvis during rehearsals in July). You can imagine how jealous I am of her because, well, just look at Elvis! 🫠🥲 Anyway, here's a little story about the fans with Elvis in those pictures:
Las Vegas, NV. Monday, August 28, 1972. Elvis with two Italian fans. The woman is Nicla Crippa and the man was the President of the Italian fan club, his name is Livio Monari. Livio Monari started the Italian FC in 1962. Together with Nicla Crippa, a personal friend and member of his Fan Club, they met Elvis just after the Midnight show on 26th August 1972. Photos taken that day didn't come out, so they asked to see Elvis again... to have new ones taken on the 28th August (2nd meeting) which are the ones shown above. They had just attended the Dinner & Midnight shows on the 28th Aug: when a waiter approached them - that Elvis was waiting for them.
Nicla said the following about the meeting:
1972 was a special year for me, I picked up all my saving of a year and together with Livio Monari at that time president of the E.P.F.C. of Italy, I flew to Las Vegas in August to see Elvis performing. When we arrived we were so excited that we started immediately to ask anybody of Elvis entourage if we could meet Elvis, crook Col. Parker was at a gambling table with his cigar and he said very rude "NO, you cannot met Elvis", then Joe Esposito who said No too, and when I told him "Hey Joe you are Italian like us" he answered "I'm not Italian, I was born in Chicago" very rude too... until I saw the name of Emilio Muscelli on an office door, I knocked and entered and I said with all my 18 years old enthusiasm (in fact I was not yet 18, I would have turned 18 on December 30) "Hi Emilio, we are Italians and we are here to see Elvis concerts and meet him"... well he took it good to his heart and from that point on he treated me like his daughter - he was 50 years old. We saw 14 concerts in 7 days and we met Elvis TWICE, the first time on August 26 but the pictures Joe Esposito took with Livio's camera did not come out as Livio due the emotion charged an already used film in the camera... the second time on August 28, this time we called a professional photographer to take the 2 pictures to be sure. When I saw Elvis the first time coming out of his dressing room I ran towards him and I almost jumped on him, I hugged and kissed him and he returned the hugs and kisses to me and he asked me "Hey baby how old are you" I answered "18" and he said "And you came all the way from Italy just to see me?" "Yes Elvis" and he "Oh baby..." and he hugged me again very tight. We stayed with him for 15 minutes, we gave him a trophy we brought from Italy unfortunately we have no picture of Elvis with our trophy but I saw it at Graceland Trophy Room in 1987. He wrote a dedication to me, and one to Livio, on 2 LPs we brought with us, he gave us a yellow scarf each, but especially I held his right hand in my hands for a long time, and he did not withdraw it, on the contrary he caressed my hands. He was such a gentle, sweet and tender person, he made us feel at ease and he slowed down speaking English as at that time I could not speak English well. We asked "when will you come to Europe?" he said looking at Joe "I definitely wanna go, after a project I have for January 1973 (Aloha from Hawaii) I'll ask Parker to organize a tour to Europe". The night after Emilio gave us seats in the first row, Elvis saw me from stage and he stooped down and he put a red scarf around my neck... and on August 28 we met him again same place backstage and he said "Hey you are still here, good", he had such a sense of humour. Those 2 meetings with Elvis still are the best moments of my life!

#first if all... elvis slowing down his talk so the italian fans could understand him better? that's so fucking thoughtful and adorable!#i wonder how many huge stars as himself - even common american citizens - would do something like that...#a very welcoming and warm way to treat foreigners#secondly... i have to say i do not like how colonel parker and even joe esposito were not that friendly towards those two elvis fans...#i know they couldn't possibly allow every and each fan to meet elvis but why be so cold - specially knowing how elvis wouldn't like that?#we all know how parker was not often friendly but joe is one of the memphis mafia guys i don't have much sympathy for#joe just gives me that 'i'm a big shot' energy... like 'i'm better than you' vibes just bc he was elvis' close friend and road manager#i may be wrong about him... didn't know the guy obviously... but little i've read of other MM guys talking about joe some said exactly that#on the other hand lisa marie said joe was always nice to her - a little strict and not afraid to say no to her as a child but a good person#but lisa was elvis' daughter so of course joe would be the nicest to her#don't know... it doesn't make joe a bad person at all... i just don't understand how someone close to elvis could be smug#does anyone else shares the same views on joe esposito or know something that shows i'm wrong?#i want to be wrong at this assumption but i do not like joe very much so far... i'm still trying to figure him out#elvis presley#elvis history#elvis fans#elvis fandom#elvis concerts#las vegas#nevada#august 1972#elvis#70s elvis#1972#elvis the king

I personally went through phases of sailors, pirates, cowboys, bandits from wild west stories, mafia, and criminals in general.

Lawrence Salvatore Scardino, also known as Larry Scardino, or Larry Harvard, is an elderly Italian-American mobster, and the Don of the Scardino crime family, the Mafia family that dominates Great Lakes City. Larry is a sworn enemy of the Loud family and the Casagrande family. Born on February 16, 1945, he is the eldest son and third child of Salvatore "Sal the Owl" Scardino, a US Army veteran and then a soldier in the Scardino family. Larry was 16 years old when his grandfather, Charles Scardino, died, and his father, Sal, became the boss. Larry attended Harvard University from 1963 to 1967, and was a boxer at the time, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and attended Harvard Business School from that same year until receiving his MBA in 1969. It is due to his time at Harvard that he earned his nickname, Larry Harvard. He later became a made man in 1971, and was later promoted to caporegime in 1975, and given narcotics rackets. He married Gina Durante in 1971, and they have five children: James, Victoria, Paul, Louis, and Vincent. In 1982, he was promoted to underboss after Fat Bob Laurenti died of a heart attack. While his father was indicted for skimming casinos in Las Vegas, Larry was never charged, due to having no involvement in the skim. He later became acting boss in 1986 after his father was given a 15-year prison sentence, and became boss of the family in 1991 after his father died. Due to his legitimate business fronts, and his influence with politicians, judges, and law enforcement, he was able to avoid prosecution for over three decades, even as some of his underlings were sent to prison in the 2000s.
