1973Book shows light wear to covers, top of spine has a tear, some edge wear. Binding is solid and square, though splitting in the middle (see photo), text/interior is clean and free of marking to the text. 88 pages with occasional b&w photos including one, representative of the book's somewhat hard to fathom seriousness with the caption " Some of the common ritual items include a water pipe, and ounce of marijuana and cigarette papers": depicting a coffee table with a cheap radio alarm-clock and the mentioned items. The text may have moved into camp.
