About this product

Product Information

Hidden away in a storage closet deep within the bowels of Texas State Mental Hospital languished a forgotten but incredibly rare collection. A unique and exceptional assortment of extremely rare, malformed or damaged human brains preserved in jars of formaldehyde. Decades after they were hidden away, in 2013 photographer Adam Voorhes discovered the brains and became obsessed with documenting them.

This particular set of books was apparently in the hands of a very heavy smoker, as all of them reek of the smell of cigarette smoke; this should have been noted in the description of the product. We will have to get rid of this set, as it smells up the house - we are non-smokers, and have a low tolerance for the odor.
