KIRK, AND FORTY-TWO ILLUSTRATIONS BY JOHN TENNIEL -- NEW YORK - FREDERICK A. STOKES COMPANY PUBLISHERS"(FIRST EDITION OF THIS FAMOUS CHILDREN'S BOOK WITH THESE ILLUSTRATIONS, ALTHOUGH THE BOOK WAS ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED MUCH EARLIER WITHOUT THE KIRK COLOR PLATES, THIS COPY MISSING ONE OF THE TWELVE COLOR PLATES, AND HAVING SOME OTHER LESS MAJOR CONDITION ISSUES!!)-- Here we have a fairly good for its age First Edition copy of this M. L. Kirk illustrated edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, a refurbished copy that is lacking one of the twelve color plates. The missing plate,which is supposed to face page 122, is entitled "I believe I can guess that!", and is a picture of Alice talking to the mad hatter. The only other picture with a minor issue is the picture of Alice with the large bird, white appears to have a couple chips in its edges, but are actually just dogears that need to be straightened out which I show in my seventeenth picture. This is widely considered to be one of the best editions of Alice's Adventures because of the nice illustrations. I find copies of this exact edition mostly all priced between one and four hundred dollars plus shipping, with a couple copies in poor condition missing some of the plates starting at around eighty dollars. This copy has been refurbished with new endpapers added to make for a solid and sturdy copy that is even safe for older children to read by themselves.-- THIS IS A HARDCOVER BOOK OF 247 PAGES PLUS THE ILLUSTRATIONS, WHICH MEASURES ABOUT 8 AND A QUARTER BY 6 INCHES IN DIAMETER--I AM PUTTING THIS UP FOR SALE TODAY AT A REASONABLE BUY-IT-NOW PRICE WITH FREE DOMESTIC SHIPPING, OR FEEL FREE TO SUBMIT YOUR BEST OFFER--GARY FROM HAUNTED MANSION RELIX--
