USA: Alice in Wonderland

I just returned from my city trip to Vienna and during my trip arrived many postcards. Two of the cards are from the USA.

One of them shows one of John Tenniel's illustrations for Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. This one is from the chapter Advice from a Caterpillar. Alice in Wonderland was published in 1865 and tells the story of an little girl falling through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world. It is one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre.
