Description
Ohio Electric Chair "Who's Who" Souvenir Photograph Card, Circa 1905. 4.25" x 6.5", mounted on studio card. A rather macabre souvenir from the Ohio Penitentiary Annex with the curious claim, given the nature of the card, that their photos are "Made From Life". The front bears small studio portraits of 23 well-dressed Ohio murderers and a larger image of "Old Sparky" himself. The reverse gives the statistics of each man including his name, date of execution, name of victim, and location in Ohio where the crime was committed. The image has toned slightly otherwise it is in excellent condition.Auction Info
