1931 Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll / Coker & Co. London / Illustrated by Bessie Pease in Colour and Line / Vintage Book
Scarce in this illustrated edition, here is a lovely vintage copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Published in 1931 by J Coker & Co., Ltd of London. It has wonderful colour plate illustrations by Bessie Pease as well as a number in black line. In very good condition, with just a diagonal tanned area on the front being the only real condition point to note (see photos).
Bessie Pease was an American artist and illustrator, most noted for her paintings of young children. During the early 1900s she was one of the better-known magazine and book illustrators in the United States.
Inside the pages are clean, bright and tightly bound, with no writing or other markings of previous ownership. All of the colour plates are present as called for, and all in very good condition.
Green cloth covered boards have an illustrated paste down to the front, and black titles. All in top order - clean, unfaded, tight and square.
Your vintage copy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to add a gift card with a message to the parcel.
