Sometimes an item is of greater value in whole than any of
its’ parts. This I bought from an Italian bookseller on EBay in 2007, really
sold as an autograph of Lewis Carroll.
To celebrate the 126th Exhibition of the Royal
Academy in London the book is a “coffee
table book” for Victorians and Dodgson presented this copy to his sister-in-law
Mary Collingwood with much affection and calling himself her brother.
