Alice Through the Looking Glass

Viola Savoy meets the White Rabbit in the 1915 nonpareil film production of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. This is one of only two known surviving copies of the larger format book to retain not only its dustwrapper but also the original box it came in. We love this book and film and one of our favourites from our own collection.

‘Hold your tongue!’ said the Queen, turning purple.
‘I won’t! ‘ said Alice.
‘Off with her head!’ the Queen shouted at the top of her voice.
Nobody moved.
‘Who cares for you?’ said Alice, ( she has grown to her full size by this time).
‘You’re nothing but a pack of cards!’.
At this, the whole pack rose up into the air and came flying down upon her.

Illustration by Gwynedd May Hudson, for Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland, this edition was first published in 1922.

Slightly surreal and beautiful sky on our way home this evening. No filter.
