Socialist Eugene Debs was sent to prison after a fiery speech in Canton, Ohio, in 1918 that criticized American involvement in World War I. But being in prison didn't stop him for running for president in 1920. This classic 7/8-inch celluloid pictures Debs as Convict No. 9653. This is the version with larger picture of Debs. It has a Pilgrim back paper and is in excellent condition. Al Anderson collection.
