    Bonelli, William - Correspondence

    Manuscripts

    Approx. 10 items: In 1953, The Mirror exposed William Bonelli's Mafia connections and involvement in racketeering. In 1954, Bonelli, long-time member of the State Board of Equalization, authored a book, Billion Dollar Blackjack - the story of corruption and the Los Angeles Times. As the title suggests, this book was a strong condemnation of LAT and the Chandlers (publishers). Later Bonelli brought a lawsuit against The Mirror, another Chandler-owned newspaper, for "certain false published statements." This collection includes memos, letters, legal documents, press releases, etc. Also included is a complete copy of Los Angeles Underground (1954?), which reprinted the entire aforementioned book because, as the issue says, it was "suppressed in Los Angeles."
