Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There by Lewis Carroll invites readers back into Wonderland’s mirror-image realm where chess-piece kings, talking flowers, and Tweedle twins await. This vintage Ward Lock hardcover preserves every whimsical poem and inverted logic that has made the 1871 sequel a staple of classic children’s fantasy.

The book arrives in acceptable antiquarian condition, still wearing its original dust jacket. Light scuffing, tiny edge tears, and gentle chips hint at decades of bedtime story duty, while the beneath-jacket boards show shelving wear consistent with age. Closed page edges and the jacket’s underside display classic foxing that collectors expect yet does not obscure text or illustrations.

An inscription on the front endpaper adds a personal touch from an earlier reader, enhancing the copy’s nostalgic charm without claiming authorial signature. For collectors of Alice in Wonderland ephemera, illustrated Victoriana, or timeless read-aloud tales, this gently worn edition offers an affordable slice of literary history ready for a new shelf.
