Presentation copy inscribed by Carroll to the granddaughter of Queen Victoria on the half-title in blue ink, "Presented to H.R.H. the Princess Alice by the Author, Mar. 25, 1890." With the bookplate of Alice Mary Victoria Augusta Pauline on the front pastedown. This is probably the highest level of a royal presentation copy of this book, the association made even more marvelous by the recipient being an "Alice." There were several trial issues of the book in 1889. Avery 34. With modern custom-made folding cloth box with leather spine label.
