LOS ANGELES — Before his death, the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia tried to get clean after years of freebasing cocaine and other drugs, so he gifted a marijuana pipe to a fellow musician who socked it away in his San Francisco home.
About 31 years later, the handmade pipe has resurfaced in a Marin County antique shop, whose owner considers it a unique rock 'n' roll artifact.
"My shop is fun and a lot of fun stuff walks in the door," Steve Cabella, owner of the Modern i Shop in San Anselmo, California, told the Los Angeles Times. "But when this walked in the door, it was simply one of the more interesting things that have walked through that door."
