An inscribed first edition, with a purple ink inscription by Carroll in the year of publication to the wife of the playwright who tried to take Alice to the theater.<ul><li>Lewis Carroll (English).</li><li>Illustrated by Harry Furniss.</li><li>London: Macmillan, 1889.</li><li>400 pages.</li><li>Octavo.</li><li>Inscribed by Carroll in purple ink on half title.</li><li>Bound in original full gilt-stamped red cloth, all edges gilt.</li></ul> This copy is inscribed to "Mrs. Dubourg": the Dubourgs appear a number of times in the journals and letters of Lewis Carroll. Augustus William Dubourg was an author and playwright who attempted to get Alice's Adventures in Wonderland produced on stage. Carroll also formed a friendship with their daughter Evelyn, who was either 10 or 12 when they first met. He frequently met with the family when in town, and continued to make special visits with them over the course of many years. Sylvie and Bruno is a tale of Fairyland, which grew from the episodic stories of two characters that Carroll would often tell to children. In it, Carroll sought to create an entirely original approach to the fairy story—just as he had with Alice, which now had so many imitations that Carroll hoped once more to prove his ingenuity; a few of the scenes were apparently inspired by dreams.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass

First printing of this beautiful adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic, with illustrations inspired by early modern woodblocks — a scarce Goodhue work in exceptional condition.<ul><li>Emily Prime Delafield (English).</li><li>After Lewis Carroll (English).</li><li>Illustrated by Bertram Goodhue (English).</li><li>New York:&nbsp;Dodd, Mead &amp; Company,&nbsp;1898.</li><li>90 pages.</li><li>Illustrated in black and red.</li><li>Bound in original color pictorial boards, red and yellow pictorial endpapers of Alice characters including the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, and Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee.</li></ul> With woodcut illustrations that look like an incunable had a brief but inspiring friendship with Aubrey Beardsley, Alice in Wonderland is an attractive example of Bertram Godhue's Arts and Crafts sensibilities in book form.

This is a very nice copy, rarely found so.

Its many moveable parts mean that this panorama is unusual to find complete and intact, as this copy is.
