    Contents differ from the 1971 omnibus Alice in Wonderland and Other Favorites, which does not include the last three, short parts (pp. 275-306 in the 1951 publication). The 1971 may replicate the first three, long parts in pagination and layout (arabic-numeral span 1-274 in both 1st editions).

  • "Copyright, 1951, by Pocket Books, Inc"
  • "Pocket Book edition published August, 1951." Stated second printing July 1951.
  • "with 92 illustrations by Sir John Tenniel."
  • Cover art is a cropped, colored version of the b/w artwork by Tenniel on page 60. Front cover design by H. Lawrence Hoffman.
  • Price not stated.
  • The numerous poems incorporated within, before, and after the two novels are not indexed here.
  • The text of Chapter 1 of the first novel starts on numbered page 3, but the prefatory poem (part of the published book) starts on page [7] (six pages earlier).
  • The verse riddles "Puzzles from Wonderland" were published in the December 1870 issue of Aunt Judy's Magazine. "Solutions to Puzzles from Wonderland," also in verse, were apparently published in the next issue, but were not by Carroll. See Lewis Carroll's Puzzles and Games, ed. Edward Wakeling (Dover, 1992).
