Question & Answer Series 48

Q: Hello,
Recently I went in my attic to clean up and I came upon this old book titled “Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland”. I looked in the book and it appears to be very old. Also a previous owner of the book wrote the date 1901 inside of one of the pages. I was wondering what the value is of this book? Also what was the publication date? I sent you a couple of pictures attached.

A: This book was published between 1899-1901 and was part of the Beauxarts Series. (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series48.htm)

It is a reprint and most of the books of this series have only nominal value. Occasionally however, since there are many “Alice” collectors out there this title may sell for $20-30.
