An offprint revised of the first book appearance of this talk - the first and only occasion Huxley and Leary lectured together. "The XIV International Conference of Applied Psychology took place in Copenhagen Aug. 13-19 1961. In addition to Leary Frank Barron of the Harvard psychology department and author Aldous Huxley were also invited to speak.Huxley's lecture was entitled "Visionary Experience"; it was delivered earlier than Leary's and concludes with a reference to Leary's upcoming lecture "We shall hear from Dr. Leary about the induction of such experiences by such substances as psilocybin". Barron's talk contains the first reference in print to his "commending the mushroom to the attention of Dr. Leary who immediately seized upon its possibilities as a vehicle for inducing change in behavior as a result of the altered state of consciousness which the drug produced" HOROWITZ WALLS & SMITH AA23D. Huxley who had written extensively about his psychedelic experiences under the influence of mescaline in Doors of Perception 1954 here writes about the pursuit of the visionary experience as a vehicle for change and a more beautiful reality. He elaborates on the various methods of access to the visionary world including spontaneous induced and chemical access with separate sections on the usage of mushrooms and how light can enhance the visionary experience. This and the first separate printing are substantially expanded from the two which precede them both produced by mimeograph and issued in small numbers. BROMER B113. Munksgaard unknown

Lengthy volume by the former assistant attorney general for the Justice Department responsible for enforcing the Volstead Act from 1921-1929. "She worked closely with both the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and the Anti-Saloon League to build public support for the federal efforts. She also used liquor prosecutions to generate headlines. A number of times Willebrandt sat in the courtroom while one of her assistants pressed a case. Since women government lawyers were quite a novelty in the 1920s her actions generated press coverage. Similarly she focused much of her action on corruption cases that grew out of the violation of prohibition again headline grabbers. She did not seek press notice gratuitously but as a part of a Justice Department campaign to showcase prohibition enforcement activity and to make a case to the public for cleaner government. Willebrandt published first in syndicated newspaper column form and then as a book The Inside of Prohibition her vision for effective prohibition law enforcement. She called for clean government greater coordination between national and local officials and especially for common people to take responsibility for seeing the laws enforced" Badr Jehad and Mark Weir.

1966CAT0204New York: UPI Roto Service 1966. First Edition. Photocopy of a typed manuscript 8-½ x 11 in. 12 pp. printed recto only sl. chipping and toning at edges; together with an additional copy of the typed manuscript; a License to Use Your Head order form for Leary’s Future History book series no date; and seven of eight “Man of Visions†silver gelatin prints 8 x 10 in. each dated May 28 1966 with caption leaves and UPI Press stamps verso. Near Fine. Journalist Joe O’Sullivan visited Timothy Leary’s community in Millbrook New York twice in 1966. Following these visits he released two interviews with Leary on the UPI Roto Service. This interview unpublished and unrecorded in Leary’s bibliography is the second of the two interviews. The interview offers detailed descriptions of Leary’s daily life and providing an ordinary context for his controversial work. Leary gives laconic answers to O’Sullivan’s questions about drugs the counterculture free love Viet Nam sic and the communal life at Millbrook occasionally proffering a bit of unasked for advice including on the author’s children. “Let them turn you on … Treat them as little gods and goddesses.â€<br /> <br /> The photos taken to accompany the first interview similarly reflect O’Sullivan’s interest in the mundane: e.g. poignant detailed vignettes of a shrine to Rosemary Woodruff soon to be Leary’s wife while she was doing jail time for marijuana possession. We find no evidence that either interview was ever published. The first article “Man of Visions†is referenced in our typescript’s caption and was “serviced to UPI Roto Service clients in the package of May 28 1966†the same date as the present photo-series which presumably accompanied it.<br /> <br /> Both articles would have appeared before Leary’s landmark Playboy interview was published in September 1966 which the annotated Leary bibliography lists as his first published interview Horowitz Walls & Smith D1 . Surprisingly there is no reference in Horowitz to either of the earlier O’Sullivan UPI articles though a short third article “God and Timothy Leary†was published in Dec. 1966 Howoritz et al. D3. Some of the photographs from “Man of Visions†are known from other sources a few seemingly unpublished. Materials are in excellent condition with minimal wear. UPI Roto Service unknown
