First edition with these illustrations. Original olive green cloth with dark blue titles and gilt-stamped illustration to upper board, titles in dark blue to the spine. Illustrated with 13 tipped-in colour plates, each with a captioned tissue guard and 15 black-and-white line drawings by Arthur Rackham. A very good copy, the binding firm with a slight lean and minor fraying to the spine, the cloth with a few light marks and some fading to the spine and board edges. The gilt remains bright. The contents, with a bookseller's label to the front pastedown, some spotting to the closed text block edge and light foxing throughout, are otherwise clean and without inscriptions or stamps.
One of the most beautifully illustrated and sought after editions of Alice in Wonderland.
