Inside sleeve
Andrew Skilleter is one of the brightest talents working in the field of commercial illustration.

His association with Doctor Who began in 1979, when he was commissioned to paint an illustration for the cover of the Target range of Doctor Who television story novelisations. Since then he has provided artwork for Doctor Who posters, Doctor Who calendars, even the sides of a Doctor Who travelling exhibition truck – and of course many Doctor Who books of all sorts.

This volume, written by the author himself, chronicles the Doctor who career of Andrew Skilleter and is packed with beautiful printed reproductions of his work.
