Joe Sent Me
What’s the scoop on The Club Durant, Stork Club, Cotton Club, and Club Richman? They all thumbed their noses at Prohibition, saying “screw the rules.” If you hung out at George Lamaze’s Park Avenue Club, you’d be shoulder-to-shoulder with judges, top lawyers, and their future clients. In the Big Apple alone, you had 32,000 speakeasies to pick from. But don’t think you could just walk in. Nah, you had to be in the know, use the secret knocks, and drop the magic words: “Joe sent me.” Then, like magic, the Real McCoy flowed, but it came at a price. Here’s to the wild days!
