New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1934. 125 copies, signed by both editors, of which this is copy "L". Hardcover. Very good. xiii, 568 p. 26 cm. Burgundy leather with gold trim. Wrapped in clear mylar (removed for photo). Some wear to leather at spine head. Front hinge cracking internally. A few rough edges when pages cut. Pencil ownership inscription on front free endpaper. Small stain to inner margins of Preface-Introduction p. xi. This edition not in the Lewis Carroll Handbook (1979). The limitation is unusual; numbered copies are certainly available but this one is lettered, suggesting that the 125 copies might consist of 99 numbered copies for sale and 26 lettered copies for presentation. An excellent chronological arrangement of all of Carroll's writings collected into one volume. Biography, bibliography and index.
