Lewis Carroll’s Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There invites readers back into Wonderland’s mirror-image realm where chess-piece kings, talking flowers, and Tweedle twins await. This vintage hardcover from Ward Lock preserves the beloved 1871 sequel in classic form, perfect for collectors of children’s fantasy or anyone revisiting Carroll’s whimsical wordplay.
The book carries a personal inscription on an early page, adding a touch of history without author attribution. A protective dust jacket still clings to the boards, its bright artwork showing only light scuffing, tiny edge chips, and internal foxing that hints at decades of careful shelf time. Closed page edges display scattered spots yet open to a clean, readable text block.
Expect gentle overall wear: spine ends and corners bear the mellow rub of handling, while the front inner cover records a neat vintage name and date. Despite these marks of age the binding remains sound, ready for bedtime story duty or display among antiquarian treasures.
