Alice in Wonderland [SIGNED] by Lewis Carroll / Ralph Steadman (Illust.) - 1967

London: Dennis Dobson, 1967. 1st Edition . Very Good/Very Good. 9.25 x 13 inches (23 x 32.5 cm). Signed by Author. Dust jacket: Light shelf wear and a couple of marks. Tiny nick to outside edge of front cover. A couple of stains to jacket (only visible on the reverse) have caused very slight wrinkling to front cover. The Original (old money) price has been clipped with new publisher's price label to front flap. Preserved in a removable jacket protector. Overall jacket condition is Very Good. Book: Signed and dated by the illustrator to the half title page. A few tiny marks to boards. Small spot of glue to cloth at foot of page inside front cover (original binding flaw). Previous owner's bookplate to front pastedown endpaper, slight creasing to front free endpaper, otherwise in excellent condition throughout. The rare first Steadman edition. The book was obviously a slow seller and the publisher still had copies in stock when the book won the Francis Williams Book Illustration Award in 1972. On the back of this publicity it appears they remarketed the book with an amended price and a wrap-around slip announcing the award win. The wrap-around is included here (a little stained and marked). A highly sought after edition, rare in this condition and especially desirable with the illustrator's signature. Overall book condition is Very Good. Hardback. Printed pages: 108
