I think you might be interested in a poster, right?

You know, it's something a little bit better.

The original blueprint of the electric chair Juliet State Prison State.

Okay, that's definitely more interesting than a poster.

Thistle is a brand new thing for the state of Illinois, so it's sometimes they had inmates help do it or they had their staff build that chair.

I would like 5000 best possible, maybe 1800.

Well, back in the 19 seventies, I worked at the county jail for a few years.

One of the old timers there who was retiring, took a liking to me as a rookie and gave me this.

Juliet State Prison was part of Cook County back then in 1925 when they opened up.

Over the past 120 years, the electric chairs, probably one of the more interesting things to be invented.

Most places have switched out the electric chair for the gas chamber or lethal injections.

People seem to think it's a little bit more humane, but how would you know unless you ever put in one?

Is this electric chair still at the prison?

It still exists, except it's all bricked up.

August 24th 1962 was the last time in the state of Illinois that they execute any money and they bricked it up, hoping that maybe the state will change her mind having come back.

It's been a controversial issue whether the state has the right to actually kill somebody.

I mean, there's people out there that will say, if murder's illegal, the state can't murder, no matter how bad of a guy you are.

And then there's plenty of people out there that believe, you know, there's some people that are such they deserve to die.

I'm sure collectors will be all over these blueprints.

If this is an original, and that's something that was mass printed, it might be pretty special.

Um, do you mind if I give a buddy of mine a call?

It's my buddy Mark Clark County Museum guy.

There is to know about everything I have no problem.

I'm calling in another person to look at him.

So what do you know about electric chairs?

Okay, there are only three electric chairs in the entire state.

One of them was at Stateville, which is the state penitentiary.

So he always appointed one of his staff a deputy to actually turn on the juice as it were.

The electric chair does still exist today.

There are a few states that still have it as a primary means of execution.

There are a number of states where it is available if the criminal being executed asks for it.

But in most cases throughout the United States, most states have gotten rid of it.

One of the things I think is kind of interesting about these.

They tried to make them at least a little bit comfortable.

You had actually different ways and restraining you.

You have a padded seat that can be removed.

The back here can be moved so that you can lean back, more or less.

There was a nod nod to comfort on that when it was going to be utilized.

You confined blueprints in books and histories of executions in the United States.

Stains like that they've been reproduced.

But to find a first generation print, that's unusual.

I can say that looking at this paper is right.

This is really this would be a first generation blueprint for the electric chair.

You wouldn't think that there'd be a collector's market for devices like the electric chair, but there are kind of nice to see you in a single design that's original to the time period.

So how much were you looking to get out of it?

I would like to get about $5000 for that's a little much.

Anywhere on here, you'd be looking at 5000 all day long.

The fact that it doesn't makes it worth a little bit less so I'd like to offer your run a tinderbox work.

Are you willing to come down at all, Um, I'm willing to come down to about 22.

Realistically, after I spent some money on it, I could probably get three.

Sure grab fans on me with his offer for $800 was just out of the question.

It just didn't seem reasonable, especially when they're often.

It's less than I was hoping for, but it's better than nothing.
