Stunning portrait of icon Martin Luther King, Jr, folded into the pages of a book.
 
Also included is a quote by Dr. King that says: True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.
 
Each folded page is measured, creased, and folded by hand, taking great care to create a beautiful portrait of the late Dr. King.

The book measure about 8.5" high, and sits open about 5" wide.
 
★ Pages are in good condition, and although the margins of the pages may be cut to allow detail for folding, the pages are left intact so no text is removed form the book.
