So after all these years, I finally got the May 13, 1957 issue of Life Magazine featuring the 'Seeking The Magic Mushroom' article about Gordon Wasson's travels to Mexico to take part in Maria Sabina's Mazatec Indian mushroom rituals. I got it at a flea market for $10. I'm so happy to finally have it. I could have easily bought it off the internet, but never got around to it. But my mom and sister were going to the flea market, where they said there were old Life Magazines, so I decided to tag along. I went straight to the 1957 bin and found it immediately. Once I saw the $10 price tag, it was as good as mine. Yes!
I also got the September 9, 1966 'LSD Art' issue, which was one of two LSD cover stories by Life Magazine in a six month time span in 1966. I will also frame that one. I'm psyched. Anyone else have either of these issues?

Then you've seen Burt Lahr and the potted palm? This issue is one of my most prized possessions.

No, I haven't seen the film. Have you?

Were you serious? Just curious. 
BTW, here's the September 9, 1966 'LSD Art' issue I also picked up for $10.
