"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" was published by the Homewood Publishing company, circa 1900. "Through The Looking Glass" was published by Donohue, circa 1904. Both feature the Tenniel illustrations inside.
"Looking Glass" is in better condition overall, but both books are heavily worn. I'm hoping they find a new home with an owner that doesn't mind these flaws.

These are amazing! Alice in Wonderland is one of my favorites; I have several versions (including an annotated version), but none are this gorgeous!
Stunning.

I love the red colour of Alice's clothes, so different from the later blue. I would love to be considered - fond memories of reading Alice, up a tree, with a bag of apples!
What lovely covers! I like all the Alice stories.
Oh Wow! I am a bit of a collector of the Alice stories, these are wonderful!
Enter my name, please. Would like to read these to my little one.
I'm slow to enter this time - I'd treasure having these books; I haven't run across old editions of these yet.
