I have a 1972 edition of the Last Whole Earth Catalog. It is in very very good condition. If anyone is interested in the catalog please feel free to contact me through e-mail. It is the most interesting catalog ever published. Steve Jobs was right it was the Google of our time.

I am seeking to obtain a copy of an article in WEC written by noteworthy playright Ken Kesey about a visit to the
Sutro Tunnel Saloon in Nevada. It was supposedly in the "first supplement" to
WEC but I don't see supplements listed as
that, and perhaps it is included in #1050
with the Kesey bus race bits? I would be
very grateful to obtain such a copy.

"In the beginning, Stewart Brand created the Whole Earth Catalog. And the earth was without the web, google or blogging (which the Whole Earth Catalog is credited with inspiring). Steve Jobs described it as "an amazing publication... one of the bibles of my generation... It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions".
