Cocaine Consumer's Handbook

COCAINE Consumer's Handbook $100.-

A fake-looking handbook titled “COCAINE: Consumer's Handbook” is displayed in a bookstore with a handwritten $100 price sticker. The joke comes from presenting cocaine as an ordinary consumer product with an instructional manual, making the illegal drug look like a bargain-bin book. It works as an absurd reaction to treating dangerous or illicit things casually.
