It can be argued that the name "Scarface Al Capone" is the most widely recognized gangster name in history. Not only here in the United States of America, but throughout the entire world.

There's not another single individual gangster or racketeer, no matter how notorious they might have been, who is more recognizable that the name "Capone."

In my personal opinion, Capone even out guns the name Lucky Luciano in that regard....And thats REALLY saying something!
