London: Macmillan and Co., Limited,, 1898. Curiouser and curiouser! A finely bound copy, comprising the ninth edition, second impression ("eighty-seventh thousand") of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and the fourth edition, second impression ("sixty-second thousand") of Through the Looking-Glass. Both volumes are, therefore, from the last editions revised by Carroll and present the author's final version of the texts. Two volumes in 1, octavo. Finely bound by the Chelsea Bindery in red morocco, spine lettered and decorated with pictorial centre tools in gilt, raised bands, single gilt rule to covers, onlay of Alice to front cover, roll to turn-ins gilt, dark green endpapers, gilt edges. The occasional minor blemish, an excellent copy.
