About This Item
Christmas, 1893. First Edition. Near fine. One 18 cm printed sheet. Tiny spot at bottom edge.
The author requsts that any buyer disatisfied with the Sixtieth Thousand of Through the Looking-Glass may return it to Messrs. Macmillan & Co to exchange for the next issue. The issue's pictures failed so that the book was "not worth buying." Carroll proposes to send the copies to Mechanics' Institutes, Village Reading-Rooms, etc. In the future, he will communicate to his Readers in the newspaper Agony Columns. Copies of this leaf were placed in most volumes of Sylvie and Bruno Concluded.
