Description:
New York & Toronto: Stallion Books, 1954. Second edition. 137, [1] pp. Bound in publisher's illustrated wraps. Very Good+ with slight roll and some foxing to spine, light wear, pages toned with age; much nicer shape than typically found. Uncommon in all editions.A very collectible novel of cannabis in the Beat era with an iconic cover image of a provocatively-clad blonde lady holding a joint like an antenna at half mast and sitting on the wooden floor, stoned out of her gourd. Very risque for the time, it would be the target of a Congressional Sub-Committee. The pseudonymous author's identity as been the subject of much debate. It ranks at the top of this bookseller's all-time pantheon of laughably implausible pen names, next to X. Sharks de Spot and Raccoona Sheldon.

[New York]: Beacon Books, 1960. Reprint. Mass market paperback. B328 (Holroyd page 151). Cover art by Al Rossi. Light wear to spine tips, a couple of dog-eared pages with a couple of the pages with small corner chips, not affecting text. Otherwise a near fine copy. Quite scarce. She traded her body for drugs -- and kicks!" Never was there so outspoken a novel as this ... telling the plain, uncensored truth about teen-age addicts -- and their desperate search for thrills!
