"HUMAN WRECKAGE"
The Sensational Photodramatic Drug Expose that will stagger the Nation
CARVED out of the very soul and tissue of quivering human life. "Human Wreckage" pierces throngh superficiality and plunges, deep into the pulsing heart of humanity itself!
It tears away with the ruthless grasp the black veil of secrecy. It drags into the merciless light of day that insidious monster that spreads its coils into every corner of the world. In gripping scenes of tremendous drama it hurla into your consciousness a shattering thunderbolt such as no man, woman or child who sees it can torget.
