Part of Christmas greetings series (PML 352734.1-6), referred to as "Christmas Carrolls," by Alfred Reginald Allen, sent to Houghton as a Christmas gift in 1963 with autograph card loosely laid in housing container: "Dear Arthur, A small G & S [Gilbert & Sullivan] opus of mine has been delayed in printing till February, or it would be representing me for your Christmas. Until then - for your Carroll Collection here are some early Allens, a set of six dating from 1929 to 1934. I had fun with them. Your Christmas presence of a year ago remains one of my most gratefully treasured experiences. Merry Christmas, Reggie."
"Here end the Christmas Carrolls. Printed by the Franklin Printing Company for Alfred Reginald Allen. May the memory of them disappear slowly-- like the Cheshire Cat-- and leave behind the same remainder ... Christmas Day, 1934, New York City"--Page [4].
Illustrations by John Tenniel reproducing images from Alice's adventures in Wonderland.
