Does anyone remember anything like this book?

20 years ago

It was probably around 1974 in Walden's Bookstore in Springfield, MA. I was about 14 years old and came across this beautiful book.

The jacket of the book, on the front and back inside flaps, had peel off scratch and sniff stickers that corresponded to the individual chapters on different scents. There was everything from Frankinscense to Myrrh, Rose and others. Each chapter described where the scent was first discovered to have been used and I just wore it out. I was a kid enthralled with Jesus Christ Superstar and wanted to dance in the desert sands too. Would anyone out there have a copy still?

If so, would you please list the publisher and writer? I would be so grateful. Perhaps someone would know of a contemporary equivelent? I hope so. It doesn't hurt to dream.

Thanks, Kim
