January 1, 1964. Los Angeles, CA

At this date, we have not yet begun printing what will be America’s first ‘underground’ paper. But we suspect that forty (40) years from now it will be known as one of ‘the most impactful journalistic efforts in American history’, renowned as a touch-stone of the new ‘counter-culture’, and the window thru which mainstream America first saw that culture’s growth, its high ideals, its violent clashes and finally, its blissful resolution.

Here we present as many of the next seven (7) years of front pages as we can imagine.

WARNING: Looking into the Future in this manner may cause a hallucinatory effect – you may think that you have seen it before, as if it was all in the past! Surely a mind-twister – something like what will be experienced by those who enjoy all that the sixties will offer.
