A limited edition of 430 copies. Numbers one to 55 are bound in leather and each is in a slipcase together with a portfolio of nine engravings. 56-130 are quarter-bound in cloth over paper sides in a slipcase with a portfolio of engravings. 131-430 are similarly bound and in a slipcase.
This is an edition of one of the greatest nonsense poems in the English language which has been printed using the original engraved wood blocks for the illustrations. The illustrations were commissioned by Carroll from Henry Holiday, well known for his work as a painter and designer of stained glass. His drawings were transferred on to wood blocks and then engraved. The blocks were retained as masters from which electrotype plates were made: it was these plates which were then used for printing editions of the book. This limited super special edition contains 430 copies. Numbers one to 55 are bound in leather and each is in a slipcase together with a portfolio of nine engravings.
