Alice in Wonderland
Paris: Black Sun Press, 1930.
Illustrated with 6 color lithographs by Marie Laurencin printed by Desjobert of Paris. Oblong 4to, 3/4 red morocco binding over patterned boards, gilt spine lettering and decorations, with a small inset of a white rabbit on the side panel, top edge gilt. Paris: Black Sun Press, 1930. Limited Edition.
Of an edition of 790 copies, this is one of only 20 copies with a duplicate set of plates in sanguine. Five of the extra plates are signed in pencil by Laurencin, who has also signed the colophon page, which states that this is number 19 of the American Edition. Although the binding is unsigned it was likely done by the Bennett Book Studio which did a number of similar ones. Fine, in a leather-tipped slipcase which is missing the top edge.
