This is great reading for all the young GFY webmasters who don't know how controlled things used to be in this industry. LOL

Interesting reading.. Thanks for sharing

"In 1994, an Israeli porn shop owner told the New York Daily News: "Everything used to be owned by the Mafia. But in 1986 John Gotti let everybody in."
"The days of Mob influence are gone," claimed a Sri Lankan businessman. "There's no money in the business for them. Tapes used to be $100 each. Now they're selling for $3.99."

It was interesting to see the Boneprone Famila mentioned in there. I didnt think they had been around for that long.

When I was in LA I used to go out to dinner with Lou Jr. every now and then. Every time after we went out, my face literally hurt, from having a perpetual grin on my face from him making me laugh so damn much. Great guy.

Where do you see that?

Schwick, assuming that's LTD you're talking about? I was in my early 20's back then just getting started in the apparel / textile mfg business, and did some good biz supplying zippers to their dress mfg. co. Trying to remember their garment company name back then. Think it was Roberta Mfg. Small world.

KRL,
I am only talking about two and three years ago. Butchie's son Louis was in LA running his duplication lab. Still the guy was one of the funniest people that I have ever met. I kept telling him since he was in LA he should have done some stand up comedy...really he would have been great.

down towards the bottom:

"The people who put conventional [non-pornography] magazines on the newsstand and in your drugstore are mostly Boneprone Family front companies," a pornographer in the late '80s told Dr. Robert Stoller. "That and the vending machine business. Cigarettes, candy, mobile catering businesses that go around construction sites, these are traditional organized crime business for one good reason. They do a tremendous volume of cash in small amounts. Organized crime has lots of cash that it needs to launder from its other businesses: drugs, prostitution...

Na I didn't really get a chance to meet them. Truth be told Louie Jr. couldn't ever get his head around the fact that an Opie Taylor looking "nice kid" like myself was in the porn biz. I think that he thought I was some sort of cop or some damn thing. He was always giving me a hard time that I was a cop in to bust him. Too funny. A truely fun guy though to say the least. Lost contact with him a couple of years ago. If you ever speak with anyone that knows him, tell him that I said "Hello".
