Projections is an anthology of sci-fi stories that in some way predicted life in the present day. Edited and introduced by renowned rare-book dealer Rebecca Romney, these pieces are gathered from across the genre’s rich, diverse history. Collectively, they help illuminate both past and present alike.
The 12 individually bound booklets are packaged together in a custom box with a die-cut window and include:
