This is the cell of Turkey Pete Eitner, an eccentric who was sentenced to life in Prison for murder in 1918. As a model prisoner, he was assigned to tend the prison turkeys. One day, he sold the entire flock to a man for 25 cents each, and thus began a new career as an “entrepreneur”. The inmates humored Pete by printing him checks in the prison print shop, and he “purchased” the prison and proceeded to run it. He paid all the prison expenses and wrote checks to the guards for their salaries. When he died in 1967, at the age of 89, his cell was retired and converted into a barbershop. His funeral was the only one ever held within the walls of the prison. Yes, he was a VERY popular guy.
