Gangsters, they’re just like us! Check these flicks originally taken for LIFE magazine, portraying Brooklyn-born, Los Angles based gangster Mickey and LaVonne Cohen in their natural environment. Cohen served as the real-life inspiration for Sean Penn’s character in the film Gangster Squad.

Thanks to LIFE and Quite Continental for this.
