A few great 1967 pics of Owsley Stanley (birthday boy yesterday) taken by Ron Rakow over on Instagram. (Can someone jailbreak these from Instagram? Also anyone know what building they are at? From the garage and buildings across the street, it looks to me like 158 Alpine Terrace, San Francisco or the building next door.) https://www.instagram.com/p/DFBbfJZRPdQ
