  2. Yes being as LSD wasn't even synthesized until November 16, 1938. Then its effects were not even known until April 16, 1943. So there's a good chance Crowley never even tried LSD. They did know about mescaline and other psychedelics back then though. It is more likely Crowley was into hash and opiates. They certainly enjoyed a popularity at the time.

  3. While the CIA certainly enjoyed their acid Sandoz invented it.
