DODGSON, Charles Lutwidge ('Lewis Carroll'). Some Popular Fallacies about Vivisection. 'Oxford: "printed for private circulation only", 1875'. 8° (195 x 120mm). (Some creasing and tears, and occasional soiling.) Original stitched printed wrappers (some soiling, creasing and tears).
RARE. ONE OF 150 COPIES PRINTED FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION; an offprint of Dodgson's serious attempt to discredit vivisection, published in the June 1875 Fortnightly Review. It has been argued that this edition may be a later, fraudulent printing (cf. Goodacre, 'An enquiry into the nature of a certain Lewis Carroll Pamphlet', The Book Collector Autumn 1978; although a proof copy supposedly inscribed by Dodgson is held in the Parrish collection). Williams, Madan, Green and Crutch 106.
