California, which established new legal guidelines for communities. Stories written and illustrated by Victor Moscoso, Robert Williams, Robert Crumb, S. Clay Wilson, Gilbert Shelton, Spain Rodgriguez and Rick Griffin. Released September 1969 by Apex Novelties (2nd print). Very Good (VG) - Spine ticks. Scuffs to front and back cover (see photos).
