World-Telegram & Sun staff photograph by Orlando Fernandez of Meyer Lansky being led by a detective for booking on a vagrancy charge at the 54th Street police station. A copy is stored here.

The Library of Congress titles this print "[Meyer Lansky, half-length portrait, facing slightly right, being led by detective for booking on vagrancy charge at 54th Street police station, New York City] / N.Y. World Telegram & Sun photo by Orlando Fernandez." The record gives the year 1958 and no day. It does not name the detective, and neither does this page.

As with [the companion frame](/items/loc-98506863-meyer-lansky-booking-1958/), the charge is the Library's caption. This archive has not filed a booking or court record for it.

The Library's rights statement covers World-Telegram & Sun staff photographs only, and the record identifies this print as one. The copy stored here is the Library's service JPEG.
