Alice (I)


Postcard sent by Heleen (the Netherlands). It shows a man reading a Pythonesque (from Monty Python's Flying Circus) version of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: "Alice stood stunned as Tweedle dum and Tweedle Dee recited 370 slang terms for genitals" (!).

The sender included the most beautiful Dutch Book cover of 2014: another version of Alice, newly illustrated because of the 150th anniversary.

    We sometimes complain about the lack of unusual postcards but the enormous variety never ceases to amaze me! How on earth did Heleen find that Monty Python one.

      Lack of variety in the UK? But you live in the paradise of postcards! (I think also the Netherlands is the paradise of snail mail senders...)
