1953-1983 THE RED SLIPPER MURDER CASE: Thirty Years Later
[Ohioana] : [True Crime] : [Reprography]
Upper Sandusky, Ohio: The Upper Sandusky [High School] Folklore Class of 1983, (1983)
102pp. 11" x 8 1/2." Printed red card wrappers. Near fine.
A xerox-printed volume reproducing newspaper stories, photographs, and documents on the 1953 killing of Cynthia Pfeil in rural Upper Sandusky, Ohio. Known locally as "The Red Slipper Murder," the case captivated the tiny Wyandot County town as the body of Pfeil, a student at nearby Ohio Wesleyan University and originally of White Plains, New York, was unidentified until one of the only crime scene clues, a pair of red slippers, was traced by police to a White Plains department store. This led authorities to arrest her boyfriend, Roy Schinagle, who confessed to strangling her then beating her beyond recognition before dumping her body in the woods.
This booklet was put together by students of teacher Charlotte Leeth's folklore class at Upper Sandusky High School in this boldly and sensationally designed production. Scarce. We note three holdings in Wyandot County public libraries, but none recorded by WorldCat member institutions.
