I'm doing research for a fiction project. Can anyone tell me what type of blotter was common on the last tour? Any designs stand out? I seem to remember plain white.

if it's fiction why don't you just make it up?

I agree, kind of a neat little spot to take creative license and make up your own little blotter gag. The funniest ones I can remember (from probably 1-3 years before '95) were white, but stamped on each tab in tiny letters was the word "bunk"(they weren't). I kinda remember someone talking about a Betty Boop print... someone (maybe Kesey?) had a blotter art gallery online, don't know the link.

here is a lot of blotter art. and umm, ahem uhhh i have heard it may or may not have been called white fluffer or something similar. it is all speculation and umm, i have uhhh never even seen anything like that.

Sweet breath vial of liquid. You cant go wrong with that, plus you are in for the largest dosing you have ever dared to try, especially if its a spiked "pass a round" beverage, Hang ON TIGHT!

no thanks officer!

I seem to remember Jesus Christ blodders around 91-93

My favorite was the Cat in the Hat blotters

Yeah I'm trying to track down people that possessed drugs 15 years ago.

And yeah, maybe making something up is the way to go. White seems too bland and generic (even if it wasn't).

Thanks.

white fluff was indeed the most prevalent blotter on the summer 95 tour. No print on it whatsoever, and even better (or worse depending on you perspective) it was NOT PERFORATED, so doses had to be eyeballed. In the lots this was commonly moved in quantities called "10 strips" because it was hard to cut out individulal hits from an unperforated sheet, but much easier to cut it into 10 fairly equal strips (equaling about 10 hits each). Scissors were a real commodity on tour that summer!

Are you doing it for school? or something> If Those Liberal Bas*urds would let me Do one about the Dead I would get a good grade!
