- Abstract
- en_US My best and earliest copy of this thin work. It probably gets the prize for the smallest print in my collection. AI at the beginning and a list of illustrations. Tenniel's illustrations remain wonderful, even when indistinctly printed, as sometimes here. The fables are very brief; there are several to a page. The last pages feature crazy advertisements for Wells' books, including phrenology. It is hard to see how the 1873 edition changed anything from this prototype.
