About this Item

First edition. Rarer than hens' teeth and horses' toes. Whambo, beat era medical humor/satire/caricature, quite creative and sometimes not so politically correct. Illustrated by one Russell W. Boyer. "This is a Candy Striper. She carries trays with a new TWIST. She even looks like a PEPPERMINT STICK. She speaks a strange language, like 'pad, beat, like, cat, wild, cool, dig, Dreamsville, Daddy O'. Like sometimes she's a crazy-mix-up and gives the patients the wrong pills. But the ones who survive think she is like cute." Printed/illustrated stiff card covers, 9 x 12 inches, 95 pp. "To help you while away the happy, carefree hours between friends & enemas --- pictures to color, puzzles to work, poems to read --- a hospital guide book, coloring & fun book, for adult delinquents". VG (mild soiling, covers; some creasing, rear cover; mild edgewear; one of the pages colored in by an obviously hallucinating patient). "These doctors are a form of animal life and their natural habitat is hospitals, clinics, etc. They usually have 2 legs, 2 arms, 2 eyes and practically all have large BILLS." (3214007x2).
