Alice in Wonderland
Nonethewiser
A set with everyone's favourite characters from everyone's favourite book
.Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly
Alice in Wonderland
) is an 1865 English novel by Lewis Carroll.Here are just a few facts about it:
One of the best-known works of Victorian literature, its narrative, structure, characters and imagery have had huge influence on popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre.
The book has never been out of print and has been translated into 174 languages. Its legacy covers adaptations for screen, radio, art, ballet, opera, musicals, theme parks, board games and video games
Luckily for us, both books,
Alice in Wonderland
and its sequel Through the Looking Glass
are in the public domain
and can be used for Slowly stamps.Important #1
: I do not take credit for this idea, as it originally belongs to Савва Р.
and was first suggested here. This request is in English with a couple of pictures for your viewing pleasure - hopefully it can get some support. Important #2
: I am suggesting this as a global set, since the book is a true classic loved all around the world. However, if someone feels that this should be a UK-only set, feel free to drop a comment.On the left you will see

and on the right, stamp mock-ups based on the Soviet animation film, which you can watch with English subtitles here

We've already released a stamp for Alice in Wonderland Day.
We're still thinking about whether to create a stamp set for this idea. I will keep this post open for now.

Merged in a post:
Алиса в Стране чудес
Савва Р.
У меня есть небольшая идея.
Можно было бы создать коллекцию, основанную на всем известном произведении - "Алисе в Стране чудес". Например, марка с Чеширским Котом, Шляпником, Гусеницей на большом грибе, самой Алисой, Белой королевой и Красной (оформленные в виде игральных карт). Что-нибудь сказочное и необычное.
Это даже подходит под тематику писем, так как чтение каждого письма - это словно путешествие в страну чудес.

I NEED these stamps. I'd lose the last one, isn't it from the Looking glass? And I'd add the Jabberwock.
A person who wants to get this set must recite the whole poem of Jabberwocky in his language and send it to Slowly. Recite by heart. Theatrically.

Bajaja: Thanks so much for your support! :) and I love the idea about reciting (I could do the first lines myself) 😅
The Queen of Hearts is from the first book, so I'd keep her, but Jabberwocky isn't. I'll be happy to submit a second set for the Looking Glass later, if this one is received well. 😀

Oh yes, my favorite movie! I thought about this idea for a stamp a few weeks ago, but was a bit concerned about copyright. Luckily its not for the 1800 story :)

Amigo97: Thank you! I was really hoping this set would have a universal appeal. :)
