Q: Hey I found this Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland book at my parents and was curious about the year, history and value of the book. Thanks!

A: This book is part of the Boys and Girls Classics Series.
These books were published between 1899-1906. There were two formats. The one you have and another that has gold gilt decorative patterns within some of the rectangles. See below:

Dating these books is quite easily done. By using the ads in the back of the book, the publication date can be narrowed down to within a year or two. There is a chart on the series’ webpage that outlines how to do this.
