Dangerous drugs identification kit from the 1960s

Back in the 1960s, when drugs were seen by many as the greatest plague on mankind, a company called Winston Products for Education was selling this kit to schools and law enforcement agencies, so that squares would know what a joint looked like versus a hand-rolled cigarette, or the difference between mescaline and peyote. 

The Dangerous Drugs—Identification Kit contains harmless facsimiles of the more commonly abused dangerous drugs. The Kit was designed to be used primarily as an instructional aid in educational and training programs directed toward combating the existing narcotics and dangerous drugs problem. It consists of a plastic container which is transparent and durable. Plainly visible within the container are facsimiles of amphetamines and barbituates, reproduced with exacting fidelity in terms of color, size, shape, and other distinguising characteristics.
