`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves...

...Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; 
All mimsy were the borogoves, 
And the mome raths outgrabe. 

Not too long ago I aquired an old Alice in Wonderland book from the 1880s. I can't find an exact date of publication but it was signed by a few people in the front cover as if it had been passed down to others, but the earliest was someone who dated it in 1898. The stained and well loved/read pages as well as the signatures give it so much personality. I love it! 

So I dressed in some mori garb and took my book out with me for some photos. ^_^
