xv, [1], 271, [1] pp. 8vo. Grey cloth, illustrated spines and front boards. Includes color plates by Maria Louise Kirk and 50 illustrations from the originals by John Tenniel. A follow-up volume to the Kirk edition of 'Alice', which is notable as the first work in color by Kirk, who went on to become a prominent figure in book illustration (though this remains her most celebrated work). It is also noteworthy that Kirk depicts Alice with dark hair (with one exception), and with a yellow dress rather than the now-customary blue.
