1960réf. 229971960. Mary Jane Superweed. The Marijuana Consumer's and Dealer's Guide; The Complete Cannabis Cultivator; Drug Manufacturing for Fun and Profit. These late 1960s to early 1970s underground publications document illicit drug knowledge dissemination networks within the American counterculture specifically the informal systems through which cannabis use cultivation and psychedelic drug production were taught circulated and normalized outside institutional authority. Produced during the early escalation of the War on Drugs the material demonstrates how underground presses functioned as alternative educational systems distributing practical instruction that reframed criminalized substances as accessible commodities domestic crops and reproducible chemical processes. The archive provides primary-source evidence for the study of countercultural resistance to drug prohibition revealing how knowledge-sharing operated through cheaply printed manuals aimed at non-specialist audiences. Superweed Mary Jane. The Marijuana Consumer's and Dealer's Guide; The Complete Cannabis Cultivator; Drug Manufacturing for Fun and Profit. San Rafael: Stone Kingdom Syndicate circa late 1960s-early 1970s. Three paperback booklets. 1 Superweed Mary Jane. The Marijuana Consumer's and Dealer's Guide. San Rafael: Stone Kingdom Syndicate circa late 1960s-early 1970s. Presents instruction on cannabis use handling and small-scale distribution framing marijuana as a consumer commodity. Cover illustration adapts Michelangelo's Creation of Adam in stylized countercultural line art juxtaposing classical imagery with drug culture themes. Interior pages include advertisements for related underground publications on psychedelics and herbal substances indicating participation in a broader informal publishing network. 2 Superweed Mary Jane. The Complete Cannabis Cultivator. San Rafael: Stone Kingdom Syndicate circa late 1960s-early 1970s. Subtitled "Everything you need to know about growing pot" this booklet provides step-by-step guidance on planting tending and harvesting cannabis. Cover depicts a stylized agricultural figure watering plants visually aligning cannabis cultivation with domestic gardening practices. Text emphasizes accessibility for non-specialists reflecting contemporaneous back-to-the-land movements. 3 Superweed Mary Jane. Drug Manufacturing for Fun and Profit. San Rafael: Stone Kingdom Syndicate circa late 1960s-early 1970s. Identified as a sequel to the consumer guide expands into instructions and discussion of synthesizing psychedelic substances including references to DMT. Cover features a classical nude male figure paired with bold typographic elements referencing drug production merging high art imagery with illicit subject matter. These booklets were produced within a Bay Area underground press environment that actively circulated drug-related knowledge in opposition to expanding federal narcotics enforcement including policies that would be formalized under the Controlled Substances Act of 1970. Their emphasis on self-production informal distribution and chemical literacy aligns with broader countercultural ideologies centered on autonomy anti-authoritarianism and experimental living practices. The grouping demonstrates how print functioned as a decentralized instructional system allowing users to bypass medical legal and academic gatekeeping. Moderate toning edge wear and scattered surface staining consistent with cheaply produced paperbacks; covers intact; text remains legible throughout. Overall good condition. This cohesive archive offers concentrated evidence of how underground publishing networks operationalized drug knowledge during a formative period in American drug policy and countercultural identity formation. unknown books
réf. 81578N.p. n.d. Buffalo: 1968. Quarto 28cm. Mimeographed corner-stapled sheets printed in black on blue stock; 8pp. Slight toning at margins else Near Fine. Dated from context; published in spring or early summer 1968. An important early document in the history of pro-cannabis activism in the United States. Aldrich organized the SUNYAB State University of New York at Buffalo chapter of LeMar a contraction for "Legalize Marijuana" in the spring of 1967 - it was the first campus LeMar chapter as well as one of the most influential organized with the direct input of Aldrich's friends Allen Ginsberg and John Sinclair founders of the New York and Detroit chapters respectively. Aldrich went on to become a co-editor with Ed Sanders of LeMar's iconic 'zine The Marijuana Review the first issue of which would appear in October 1968 just a few months after the current work. He would also become a founding member of the California-based cannabis legalization cooperative Amorphia with which LeMar merged in 1972. In the current document Aldrich provides a detailed history of his efforts to establish a LeMar chapter on the SUNYAB campus beginning with his first encounter with Allen Ginsberg his later affiliation with the Buffalo outlaw motorcycle club The Road Vultures and the efforts sometimes comical of Buffalo's city officials to intervene in his activities. A fascinating document by a key figure in the movement filling in a period of barely recorded history between the founding of LeMar in 1964 and its expansion and merger with Amorphia at the end of the Sixties. Apparently unrecorded with no copy separately catalogued in OCLC and none traced in commerce. unknown books
