Psychadelic Seventies revisited

Thanks Mitch.

Mitch is an old friend from the days of the hectic pre-dawn rendezvous & frantic field-outwitting forays of my 20s. When I still had enough stamina and bravery to be a hunt saboteur. Recently re-acquainted at a wedding, I had no idea that I'd left the vivid impression I obviously had. That she thought of me with a gift of this book, is more than touching - it's almost terrifying.

Amazing after so many years having passed that someone can pop up & just sum up several major threads of your life with one gesture - mad '60s' cover, crazy mix of published hemp stories, from scurrilous to the sublime, a twinkling mine of information via this '72 Apocrypha Books tome.
From the fabulously understated 'The Assassin of Youth' and 'Beware! Young and old - people in all walks of life..' posters; via news reports of the Beatles skinning up at the palace in July 1970; through to highly informative Scientific American articles and a Practical Medicine guide of the 20s! Oh - and a few cute ads:

"Is your teenager endangering his health by smoking dreaded grass? Do you, as a parent, ever say, 'If only I could get him to stop smoking Marijuana?' NOW YOU CAN ! ! With POT-O-BAN.

Slip Pot-O-Ban into his joint when he's not looking. It's not magic, not a gimmick! Just a simple, all powerful filter that captures the grass fumes in its tenacious center and doesn't let them through to blow his mind!

Before you know it, your teenager will not be inhaling dreaded grass anymore - just pure, clean tobacco into his lungs, just like you and me! You owe it to your kids! Try Pot_O-Ban!"


Get that on your Kindle - if you can!
