Originally offered during the annual Ann Arbor Hash Bash, these rare photos capture a moment in time when the weather was a chilly 30 degrees, and John Sinclair had to briefly retreat from the cold.
With only 30 photos in existence, each measuring 11×14″ and numbered individually, owning one of these is a special privilege (when making a purchase, a random numbered photo will be selected for you, ensuring a unique piece of memorabilia from this legendary event).
Own—or give—a rare piece of Michigan history for $250.

Up the smoke den game
The ultimate addition to a Michigan road trip lover’s home, the carved Interstate 420 Shield Wood Highway Sign is a perfect gift choice. This beautifully handmade marijuana-themed wall hanging adds a unique touch to any smoke lounge, she-shack, or man cave.
Designed to resemble those classic national highway signs, it’s a real attention grabber and conversation starter during your loved one’s next smoke session.
The deets? It’s carved into a 3/4 inch Pine or Aspen Board with a stained front and hand-painted wording and border, and each sign is one-of-a-kind due to the natural variances in the wood.
The shop owner gets rave reviews, too. The artist personally handles every aspect of creating these signs, from picking up the wood to packaging and shipping, and customers have praised the craftsmanship and received many compliments. Win, win, win.
