Signature cards on all three books contained the name, ‘Buffalo Bill’.

This is neat, but the article's title isn't honest. Harvard discovers three of its library books are bound in human flesh. They didn't "discover" anything of the sort. Harvard has known this for many, many years. The Harvard article linked in this article indicates that they've known about one of the books since the 1930's.

I've read previously that this practice reached its apex during the French Revolution, when there were plenty of corpses to go around.

Also, anthropodermic bibliopegy is an awesome term. Scrabble-worthy words.

I guess Reader’s Digest Condensed books were originally wrapped in foreskins.

To get the full volume, simply rub the cover.

Were these books donated by Lord Roose Bolton?

(Had to go a different direction since the Silence of the Lambs/Evil Dead references were taken)

Now we know why no one remembers this soetoro freak while he was allegedly there. He was in the library.

The Necronomicon and the Pnakotic Manuscripts come machine to mind.

Not all the books they discovered are old. The most recent one is “Tax code for conservatives” by Louis Lerner. It is a big volume and takes a pound of flesh to cover it.
