'Bad Luck, Hot Rocks' is Back in Stock!

Featured spreads are from The Ice Plant's classic, highly-sought-after Bad Luck, Hot Rocks: Conscience Letters and Photographs from the Petrified Forest, back in stock at last! Featuring photographs of rocks returned to the park alongside the letters of regret that accompanied them, this volume is impossible to put down. Notes like, "This rock was taken without knowledge of the curse. Sorry," and "Found this in my Room, you can Have it back. It's bad luck I got Busted the other night," are typical, alluding to the legend that stealing rocks from the Petrified Forest brings bad luck. "I am at your mercy," reads a portion of the note at top, "for when I did it I knew there was a fine but like I say I was not a christian and if you think I should pay a fine or go to prison I am at your mercy and you have my address."
