    Alice in Wonderland.
Dali, Salvador(1904-1989) (Illus.)] CARROLL, Lewis (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, 1832-1898).
In 1969, a collaboration of epic proportion took place as the Lewis Carroll classic was illustrated by none other than Salvador Dalí. 
Published by New York’s Maecenas Press-Random House in 1969 and distributed as their book of the month, the volume went on to become one of the most sought-after Dalí suites of all time. It contains 12 heliogravures, one for each chapter of the book, and one original signed etching in 4 colors as the frontpiece, all of which the fine folks at the William Bennett Gallery have kindly digitized for your gasping pleasure.
