'Lewis Carroll and the Subconscious', Manuscript

by HENRY, Harry. Lewis Carroll
Lewis Carroll and the Subconscious', dated October 1932 Manuscript. 11 leaves. (21 x 18 cm). Contemporary, multi-coloured silk binding, small 4to, contemporary. "Published by the Upton Press, Unlimited", and with m/s text opposite title page "This edition is strictly limited to one copy, signed and illustrated in pen & ink by the author", 8-page manuscript study + 3 full page fantastical illustrations. Any student of the life and works of Lewis Carroll.cannot have failed to have been struck by a.presentiment - that hidden in his words is something of the esoteric, or, at least, of the subconscious. This may be purely unintentional on the author's part. He himself always emphatically disclaimed ever having written any serious or solemn meaning into his verse. Yet everybody knows that, when was discussing himself, he was quite untrustworthy, his love of fun overcoming his passion for truth .it is quite possible that while he did not intentionally put any great truths into his work, yet his subconscious may have had effect in the shaping of his thoughts.Living as he did a solitary and somewhat morose existence, it is obvious he must have become in some degree introspective and self-analytical." This remarkable analysis is written by a 16-year-old boy in 1932, who had a great career ahead. His name was Harry Henry (1916-2008), the father of the market research industry in Britain.0 He launched Marplan Ltd, which became one of Britain's leading market research agencies, and developed the methodology 'motivation research'. As former director of the Thomson Organisation, he changed the face of newspaper publishing in Britain. He was an innovator in all aspects of marketing and the media. In 1965 he was responsible for the introduction to Britain of Yellow Pages directories, his single main achievement. During WW2 Henry was the principal statistician of 21 Army Group in the invasion of Europe 1944-45 where he was the "father" of military statistical analysis. [Attributes: Hard Cover]

Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There.

by Lewis Carroll; John Tenniel [illustrator]
London: Macmillan and Co. , 1872 [1871]. Very good example. Hinges and text block weak in places, interior largely clean and crisp.. Edition: First Edition. First State., Binding: Full red gilt-stamped cloth boards bound by Burns & Co., original bookbinder's ticket pasted to lower left corner of lower pasted endpaper. Spine lettered in gilt. Black pasted and free endpapers. All edges gilt. , Notes: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832 - 1898), known as Lewis Carroll, was an English author, poet, mathematician and photographer, widely known for his iconic children's books, most notably being Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). Through the Looking-Glass (1871) is its sequel.
John Tenniel (1820 - 1914) was a prominent English illustrator, graphic humourist and political cartoonist of the second half of the 19th century. An alumnus of the Royal Academy of Arts in London, he was knighted for artistic achievements in 1893, the first such honour ever bestowed on an illustrator or cartoonist. Tenniel's detailed black-and-white drawings done for Alice in Wonderland are widely recognized to be the most iconic depictions of the famous characters; "Carroll never describes the Mad Hatter: our image of him is pure Tenniel" (Bryan Talbot, comic book illustrator and writer).

Bound in the original black stamped tan cloth, inner and outer hinges fine, head and foot of spine fine, some minor foxing to pastedowns and endpapers otherwise internally clean and bright, overall generally a VERY GOOD copy. WMG&C #210. The great majority of the seventy-two problems of "Curiosa Mathematica", chiefly in Algebra, Plane Geometry or Trigonometry, were 'almost all mentally worked out in the night, without a word or line put on paper till the daylight came. The Introduction describes the method of calculation, and states that Dodgson generally wrote the answer first, then the question and solution! He could distinctly visualize complicated diagrams in the dark, such as the frontispiece . He published the problems to encourage the pastime as a means of avoiding undesired thought by concentration on a subject' (WMGC p. 181). [Attributes: First Edition; Hard Cover]

Jabberwocky.

by (Solmentes Press.) CARROLL (Lewis)
Solmentes Press, 2020. 36/40 COPIES, 60 linocuts by David Esslemont, including 34 monochrome cuts of text and illustrations and 26 colour illustrations, pp. 60, 8vo, original quarter brown calf with two gilt dots on spine, densely patterned pastepaper boards, the card mirror laid in, bubbling to pastedowns (a minor production fault), grey cloth dropback box with pictorial label to spine, near fine. A complete re-imagining of Carroll's surreal poem, in which the calligraphic text is drawn with a broad-nibbed pen directly onto the linoleum blocks, so when printed, the words appear in reverse as Alice first saw them in Through the Looking Glass. The vivd colour illustrations in particular are typical of Esslemont's work - richly textured and intricately patterned with striking changes of perspective.

Oxford James Parker and Co, 1872. First edition, first issue with no mention of Stacy in the imprint. Original brick red wrappers printed in black. A fine copy, faint ink numeral to the upper cover, but virtually as issued. One of Dodgson's famous 'Oxford Squibs', good natured satires, usually of a local political nature disguised in the sort of 'nonsense' writing popularised in the author's fiction writings. This one apparently aimed at Henry Liddell, father of Alice and Dean of Christ Church at the time, over the "bald wooden cube erected to contain the bells extruded from the Cathedral, and placed over the beautiful staircase leading to the hall, in the south east corner of Tom Quad."

ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND with THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS

by (LIMITED EDITIONS CLUB). [DODGSON, CHARLES]. "LEWIS CARROLL," Pseudonym
New York: Limited Editions Club, 1932, 1935. Each one of 1,500 copies. 229 x 152 mm. (9 x 6"). Two volumes. Wonderland with an introduction by Henry Seidel Canby; "Looking-Glass" with an introduction by Carl Van Doren.
Publisher's attractively gilt red morocco (for "Wonderland") and matching blue calf (for "Looking-Glass"), both bindings designed by Frederic Warde, each with publisher's (lightly worn) slipcase that repeats the spine decoration from the volume, housed in a modern black buckram slipcase (spine ends of "Looking-Glass" neatly repaired). With 94 original illustrations by John Tenniel, the 43 illustrations for "Wonderland" re-engraved on wood by Bruno Rollitz, the 51 illustrations in "Looking-Glass" re-engraved by Frederic Warde. Signed in the colophon of "Wonderland" by the typography and binding designer Warde. With "Wonderland" title page vignette reproduced on Roman vellum and hand-colored, in an oval wood frame, this addition neatly housed in the larger slipcase along with the two printed volumes. Wonderland: Quarto-Millenary 36; Newman & Wiche 36a. "Looking-Glass": Quarto-Millenary 65; Newman & Wiche 65a. ◆Wonderland with shallow chipping to head of spine, "Looking-Glass" with front joint a little rubbed, small losses of leather at spine ends, and minor spotting to covers; the volumes otherwise as they should be, and internally as new.

This is an attractively produced private press edition of two of the best-loved works of children's literature, accompanied by a charming framed reproduction, on vellum, of Tenniel's white rabbit, garbed as a page to the Queen of Hearts. Our volumes owe their appeal in large measure to the taste and skill of typographer and designer Frederic Warde (1894-1939), whose lovely italic hand graces the colophon here. Perhaps best known for developing the elegant italic font Arrighi, Warde began his career as a printer with the house of William Edwin Rudge, later supervised the legendary Officina Bodoni, and afterward did work for several American private presses, including Crosby Gaige and, of course, the Limited Editions Club. Some copies of this edition were enhanced by a leaf signed by Alice Liddell Hargreaves (1852-1934), the daughter of Henry Liddell, dean of Christ Church, Oxford, for whose amusement Charles Dodgson originally composed these tales. Over the years, Alice had steadfastly refused requests to sign copies of the works, but agreed to provide signatures for the Limited Editions Club--at a price. The budget for the books' production could not accommodate her $1.50-per-signature price, so members were offered the option of paying the fee to have their copies signed. "Quarto Millenary" estimates that Hargreaves signed about 1,200 copies of "Wonderland," and Newman & Wiches says that only about 500 of "Looking-Glass" were signed; our former owner seems to have been among those unwilling to pay the premium..
