Maybe not so lucky


A street in Boston, 27 November 1942.

Meet Herbert 'Fingers' Kincaid (identity of girl in blue coat unknown).

Mobster, regular at the Cocoanut Grove nightclub and part-time Buddhist, Herbert is taking his dog Lucky to be neutered by Doc Wang.  

Tomorrow night Herbert and the dog will be die horribly in the Cocoanut Grove Fire.

Trapped in the revolving doors.

Maybe not so lucky.
