The Skull by Philip K. Dick, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. First published in 1952, this early Philip K. Dick story follows Conger, a prisoner in a future society, who is offered his freedom if he will travel two centuries back in time and kill the founder of a pacifist movement. His only clue to the man's identity is a skull. A tightly plotted time-travel story with a twist that turns the mission on its head.
About this leather-bound edition
Each copy is bound by hand in genuine leather over sturdy boards, with decorative tooling and gold-tone foil lettering on the spine. Natural variation in grain, shade and foil impression is part of the character of every handmade book, so no two copies are exactly alike.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
