Otto Snow is a really provocative author well-known amongst drugs enthusiasts and psychedelic cognoscenti. His books Love Drugs, THC & Tropacocaine, Amphetamine Syntheses, Oxy and LSD are all best sellers of the genre (check out FSbooks to order.) Currently Mr. Snow is working on an updated second edition of his book on LSD. The book will not come out for three years and Snow is seeking contributions of photographs. In particular he's looking for color and black and white images of:
1) Claviceps purpurea, paspali ergots and germinating ergots
2) Lab photos, including crime scene photos of underground LSD labs
3) Macromatic and telescopic images of LSD crystals and ergot alkaloids
4) Blotter art or nostalgic photos of tabs from yesteryear
5) Portraits of the master chemists who are no longer running labs (Hofmann, Owsley, Scully, Sand, Pickard, etc.)
All living individuals will be contacted for permission to reproduce images. Photos can be credited to the photographer, a pseudonym, or anonimously published. High resolution, large size scans are appreciated (but anything at least 300 dpi should work); images should be saved as an uncompressed TIFF file and burned onto a single-layer DVD (or Otto can scan and return hardcopy photos.) Anyone who contributes with photo(s) will receive an autographed copy of the current version of Otto's LSD book, as well as the second edition once it has been published. Otto wants to pack the book with photos, as it means a lot to him to create an excellent book that will be cherised by those who study psychedelics (or simply love them.) The author can be reached at Thoth Press, PO Box 6081, Spring Hill, FL 34611, USA or www.myspace.com/ottosnow
