Letter from the executed Ohio serial killer.
This auction is for an envelope from executed Ohio serial killer Frances Anne Spisak, legally Frank Spisak Jr. (6/6/1951 - 2/17/2011). In 1972, Frank Spisak went on a racially motivated killing spree in Cleveland in hopes of starting a race war. During his 1983 trial Frank Spisak shaved himself a Hitler-styled mustache and carried around a copy of Mien Kampf. Needless to say, the race war plan failed and Frank Spisak was sentenced to death. During his 27-year incarceration Frank Spisak lobbied to have sexual reassignment surgery and demanding prison officials address him as a woman, none of which ever came to be. He did successfully, and rather temporarily, have his death sentence overturned. Frank Spisak was executed by lethal injection on 2/17/2011. He was 59.
ITEM DESCRIPTION: The envelope is postmarked 7/25/2007. The original recipient has scribbled out their address. At least they used a matching color pen! The envelope comes inside a protective comic book sleeve with an acid free board and has been stored flat. Message me with any questions you might have. Thanks for having a look-see.
