10 Portsdown Road.
Jany. 11. 1870.
Dear Dalziel
Are you disposed
to undertake the engraving
of another little book for
Mr. Dodgson?—It is a
continuation of “Alice’s
Adventures,” and I am
going to work upon it at
once.
One line please to say
“yes”—and I’ll let you
know the size of blocks &c.
In much haste—
Yours very truly
J. Tenniel.
All good wishes for the New Year!!!
