The record
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (often shortened to Alice in Wonderland), written by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson aka Lewis Carroll, was first published in 1865. The companion volume Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There was published in 1871, both stories illustrated by prolific artist and cartoonist Sir John Tenniel. Alice in Wonderland tells the story of a young girl who follows a rabbit down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world, and recounts her adventures there; Through the Looking Glass recounts Alice's adventures after she climbs through a mirror into another world. Whether Looking Glass World and Wonderland are the same place is never made specifically clear in the stories. The tales are a treasure trove of political and social satire, mathematical puzzles and games, puns, parodies, riddles, and nonsense rhymes. Tenniel supplied some 90 illustrations for both stories which have been adapted for the Wonderland Tarot. The original Wonderland Tarot was published in 1989 and after going out of print became a much sought after collectors item. The Wonderland Tarot In A Tin is a 78 card deck, it has an additional two mirror-image title cards which can be used to boo
