Fifth Edition, Twelfth thousands. With forty-two illustrations by John Tenniel. A fine binding in red morocco with boxed gilt ruling to both boards, five raised bands, gilt ruling, gilt motif and lettering to the spine. Marbled endpapers, silk head and tail bands and all edges gilt. A fine binding in fine condition. Internally clean with a touch of browning to pages, a touch of foxing to first and last few pages, marks to frontispiece tissue guard and a few light marks to sporadic pages throughout the book, otherwise an excellent copy. 192pp. 'After a tumble down the rabbit hole, Alice finds herself far away from home in the absurd world of Wonderland. As mind-bending as it is delightful, Lewis Carroll’s 1865 novel is pure magic for young and old alike'.
