Typed Letter Signed mentioning Gordon Wasson.
Cambridge, Massachusetts, December 5, 1977.
Item #SKB-17727
4to. One-page on Harvard University / Botanical Museum letterhead. Schultes writes to a scholar about "bibliographic notes" that his correspondent supplied saying that he will "take the opportunity of discussing them with Dr. Wasson when he retuns from Italy." Signed "Dick Schultes." Schultes is the grandfather of ethnobotany, and along with Wasson, Leary, and Hofmann---with whom he co-authored a couple of books including the best selling "Plants of the Gods"---Schultes is one of the preeminent figures in the field of researching and writing about psychedelic drugs. The letter is a bit age-toned and a touch soiled with old mailing creases and minor wear, very good. This is the only autograph material from Schultes that we've encountered in 38 years of specializing in drug literature---particularly nice with the Wasson reference.
