Rare satirical take on the ‘wanted poster’: ‘Description … eyes, black, have demented gaze; complexion sallow … Particulars … has a tendency to become hysterical on slight provocation … He has delusions … He is sadistic, malicious, bombastic, vengeful … maniacal … This man is dangerous, will attack without warning…’.  The records of Fight For Freedom Inc. are held at Princeton. The online introduction to the archive describes the Fight For Freedom Inc. as “a national citizen’s organization that was formed in April 1941 to press for the United States’s immediate entry into World War II in defense of Britain and other victims of Nazi aggression.“ (https://library.princeton.edu/special-collections/collections/fight-freedom-inc-records )
