Not sure where to post this, but anyway..

It is a time magazine issue ( I think November, but can't be 100%) with a back cover that has a pill bottle full of grass. If anyone has this issue I would immensely appreciate a PDF copy or just pictures of each page.

Saw this at work and it looked very interesting, and we tore off the front covers (which I did not see unfortunately because it would be easier to find the issue based on the front cover instead of the back...) and were throwing them out. I asked if I could take one since they are going in the trash anyway but they said it was illegal to do so, which is insane.

I have looked online and can't seem to find the issue, it isn't easy with just knowing what the back cover looks like.
The magazine was full of natural stuff, hence the grass in the prescription pill bottle.
Thanks!

Someone told me which magazine it was, and I guess it was the Dec 3rd magazine. Why in the hell would the issue of Dec 3rd be getting the cover torn off, and the rest thrown out on Dec 6th?

So did anyone purchase this magazine in person at a local store location and not online?

I did some looking, and hope what I found will help. Copying (including photographing) the articles is illegal without permission of Time Magazine.

This is the Dec. 3 issue: http://www.time.com/time/covers/0,16...121203,00.html
and here's a list of articles in that issue: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/0,...121203,00.html.

I also came across an article posted on December 3, 2012, that might be of interest:
Redefining Crazy: Changes to the Bible of Psychiatric Disorders

I'm guessing you work somewhere this magazine is sold.
It's standard practice in retail stores to tear off the front cover of magazines and paperbacks, which are returned to the publisher for credit. This rest of the product is legally required to be destroyed. Cheaper than sending it all back--printing is less expensive than shipping. One of life's many insanities--sorry.

Your local library could provide this issue for you, if Maven's info isn't sufficient.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
