Did you know that in the late fifties you could buy a pad of purchase order forms in a business supply store? You could also get a stamp made that said "Acme Pharmaceuticals". Armed with nothing more than those two items and some cash, you could walk into a wholesaler's office and pick up a two pound jar of methedrine powder. I have a friend who used to do that. He's even still alive.
