    I can't quite read what's circled next to the garage attendants list does it read "no" ?

    That's what it looks like to me.

    Top right - $20 goes to Guards and ??

    What is/was the 21 club?

    And which was greater worth back then - Gucci Tie or $100 ?

    Thanks for posting btw.

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

    The 21 club
    http://www.21club.com/web/onyc/21_club.jsp

    I used to live near this place in my NYC days and remember someone telling me that a hamburger would cost $300. I think the 21 represents the number of members it has. Now I'm wondering if JZD was a member.

    Nah - it's upscale, but not THAT expensive.

    Interesting. I believe in Haddad's book, he speaks about that very van in the garage. Someone took it out one night and crashed it into another car and DMC was sued.

    Thank you very much for this list. This actually proves some innacuracies from an old LMC employee I spoke with who claimed that JZD was cranking out $100-$500 Christmas bonuses every year on Logan's dime, including $100 for the paperboy alone. Obviously here a mailman was worth about $10, so there's no way a paperboy was gonna fetch a C-note.
