Q: Hi I have the 1895 ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND Book 1ST ALTEMUS ED. Lewis Carroll it has a blue cover on it and is in wonderful condition I was just wondering what it would be worth.

A: Your book is the first Altemus edition of the individual title Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. In the same year (1895) Altemus published two combination books which included Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. In 1895 there were two different editions of your book. The earlier one has 1895 at the base of the title page and the fronts ads list to Through the Looking Glass.

Appreciate that all other Altemus Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland are later editions.
