The Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley (inner)

This printed alum tawd calfskin binding shows an open window with several red-hot poker plants in front of it. Added to this background are circles of sunken onlay spots in neon orange leather and 23k gold tooling. It is a rebinding of a first edition of Huxley's seminal account of taking the psychoactive drug mescalin, where he recounts his impressions of a red-hot poker plant in his garden while under the influence.
