Big Brother is Watching You…Enjoy Cannabis

June 1, 2015 By MaryJane

Being Anti-Cannabis AKA Maryjane is not new. In fact Uncle Sam has been stringently warning Americans about the dangers of “Loco-Weed” for decades. Here are our favorite unintentionally funny but utterly fabulous REAL books, movie posters and PSA’s  (Public Service Announcements ie “propaganda” ) from the 30’s 40’s and 50’s.

Well I think we have discovered why cannabis has become SO popular – the damn PSA’s make it look like The Most Fun You Could Ever Have. Way to go propaganda department! You shouldn’t have been “doing research” while you were painting! What’s next – making venereal disease look fashionable?
