Of all the many versions of Alice in Wonderland at the Rare Book Room, I think I like this sweet 1929 one, with illustrations by Hungarian Willy Pogány (who it seems worked on everything from Djer-Kiss perfume adverts to the set design for Boris Karloff's The Mummy).

Fantastic! Hey, I'm going to find myself a cake-eater - sausage trousers and one of those jazzbo ties, sounds like the frog's eyebrows...

Oh, this is wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
