DOC'S PAPERBACK CLASSIC'S # 47
It’s been a while since I posted one of these. Seemed kinda appropriate, though, if compounding the risk of making this an all-stoner, all-hippie Sunday.
The content was usually absolute shit, but the cover illustrations for that genre of lurid paperbacks were terrific. It's a whole sub-catagory of American art that the mainstream has forgotten and/or dismissed.
