Robt. Williams weed packaging

Heads Hi Lite -1
These days, lots of pot dealers use pre-printed ziplocs or stamps to "brand" their product. Or so I've noticed in the gutter of my neighborhood park. But that's nothing compared to this awesome header card that COOP just sent me. Kustom kulture pioneer Robt. Williams drew it during his employment at Roth Studios in the 1960s. It's meant to be folded in half and stapled on top of a baggie. I love that it has a punch hole marked for hanging on a standard retail display rack. Link to bigger image (Thanks, COOP!)

I'm still waiting for PKD's "Heavenly Music", or "Acapulco Gold" branded marijuana cigarettes.

It seems to me that one of the very early National Lampoons had marijuana-cigarette packaging. You were meant to cut out the templates and fold them into Camel-type packages, as I recall...

Wait... Is that "Bob" and Connie on the back?

Nah - "Bob" smokes only the True Pipe.

I love Williams' stuff, but I'm not sure that I could handle it in a chemically-altered state--it's trippy enough when you're clean.
