CARROLL, Lewis. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Illustrated by Maraja. London: W.H. Allen [1958]. 4to, 111pp. Color pictorial boards. Color illustrations on nearly every page. Spine ends and corners a bit worn, edges lighly rubbed, slight soiling to boards, else an internally clean, tight copy.

First Maraja-illustrated edition, UK issue, having been printed in Milan by the artist’s publisher for the UK market. Libico Maraja was an Italian illustrator, perhaps most famous for his illustrated edition of Pinocchio, who created wonderful illustrated editions of many of the classics of children’s literature. This gorgeous edition of Carroll’s classic tale is bursting with color and motion and is a true delight for any fans of Wonderland.
