Humble Beginnings


 

Old & in the way: Grateful Dead bandleader Jerry Garcia's been gone for close to a decade now. He left quite a legacy - unwashed, hirsute fans, a bootleg archive that rivals the Library of Congress, and a tasty ice cream flavour. But what if you could see his autopsy? Yes, that's right, autopsy. Well, you can, in puppet form. At the Jerry Garcia Autopsy, they used a Jerry doll filled with processed meat to show you what he may have looked like when he went under the knife.

Weird Science: Scientology is the religion of choice for high-rolling Hollywood weirdoes, but it didn't start out glamorous. This mid-'70s recruitment pamphlet, replete with leisure-suit-and-turtleneck photography, and the world's cheapest props, shows a different side of Scientology - an incredibly low budget one. Learn how, as a volunteer minister, you can end spousal arguments and cure drug addiction while getting paid at www.bloodyspew.com.
