“In college dorm rooms in the 1970s and ’80s, High Times magazine was famous for the same reason Playboy was: its centerfolds.
Where Playboy delivered brazenly exposed totalities, the centerfolds in High Times depicted feats of horticulture: close-up photographs of plump marijuana plants and glistening buds. Hang a High Times centerfold on your wall, acquire a few Grateful Dead concert tapes, tie-dye a T-shirt and you could plausibly reinvent yourself as a hippie.”
