Does anyone remember Cosmos drugs and where it was? I know it was somewhere around Chicago and Lasalle, and it had that great sign with the crazy-haired freak saying “I get my drugs at Cosmos.”
Also–wasn’t there a police station around there too?
Appreciate the info.
Southwest corner of Clark and Chicago. The police station was just west of there, where Access Living is now.
Thanks very much.
I have never spent much time in Chicago, but I knew exactly what you guys were talking about. This picture was published in a book that for the life of me, I can’t remember. It was white with a orange/yellow border, and wider than it was tall (maybe 5" x 8"). It included lots of ridiculous “real life” photos and was probably published in the 1990s (maybe by National Lampoon press?)
Aha, I found it.
National Lampoon Presents True Facts: The Big Book
also includes great pictures such as “You Finding Ling Ling’s Head?”

Wow. Brings back some memories, that sign. I used to work around there and would pass it every day. Thanks again.
