Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Published by Hodder and Stoughton, Limited, for Boots the Chemists. This rare edition was published circa 1930. It includes 12 full colour plates with illustrations by Jessie Gwynedd M. Hudson as well as other decorations throughout. The cover is blue cloth with gilt lettering and decoration. The front panel decoration is rubbed in places and the cloth along all edges is shelf worn (with some fraying). The spine condition is similar to the front cover, although here none of the gilt letting is rubbed. There are a few small discolourations as well. Corners are bumped. The pages inside are in acceptable condition with some foxing throughout. One of the pages near the front of the book (a blank page preceding the title page) is torn along the bottom edge. There is also writing in pencil (children put their names along the first few pages of the book, see pictures for details). All 12 full colour plates are in very good condition with no tears or damage. I have taken a few sample pictures (see above).
