The Complete Alice Signed by Ralph Steadman

A copy of The Complete Alice & The Hunting of the Snark (1986) is inscribed, signed, and dated by illustrator Ralph Steadman. His signature and arguably the date as well are incorporated into a drawing of a somewhat cross-appearing face. The eBay sale of this unique book has only about five days remaining.
