The real Alice and Lewis Carroll - new items!


As you probably know, Alice in Wonderland  was a real little girl. Lewis Carroll who, on top of being a teacher, mathematician and writer, was also a photographer. We therefore have photos of her and himself.


Lewis Carroll was one of the first photographers, when it was still an expensive and time consuming hobby. He was very popular among famous people and royalties of his time.


By the time he took photos of Alice, exposition time had dropped down to about a minute (from over an hour a few years earlier)


But it was still quite an achievement to have little kids stay still for a whole minute.



Available in my shops....and remember

Alice in Wonderland plugs - larger sizes


Finally my Alice in Wonderland plugs are available in larger sizes.
The glass domes are 1" (25mm) in diameter.
If you don't see your sizes listed, I take custom requests.
I'll soon have the Alice and the White Rabbit style too. And a new style (but that is a surprise for September).




Get them in my 3 shops:

My Alice in Wonderland collection - all over the place


Where do I store all my collection, I get asked a lot.
It's all  over the house really. I have a lot less room than in my previous house so storing everyting nicely is still a challenge...and I hate to say it but lots of things are still in boxes.

Some items are in the living room (still in Easter mode over here)

 Some are in my bedroom





Yes, that glass cabinet is way too cluttered...



Some are in bookshelves...I have around editions of the book in various languages...






And some are in the workroom...which really needs to be re-organized...

My alice in Wonderland collection - more plush toys - more Cheshire Cats really

Yeah, I know...more plush toys... 


 
A cute fluffy one from the Disney Store





 A super  grinny one. I don't remember where I got this one...



And another Disney Store one...


I just love butt shots ;)



A funny handbag one. I think I got this one in England...Too bad there's really not any room inside to actually use it as a handbag.






 This one is from Disneyland Paris.


Disney Store again...






And one of my favorites made by Sega for the Japanese market, 2005. I think it was a prize from one of those claw machines.
Ilove the button details and the poseable little paws.
And that cute tummy...
