Illustrated by
John Tenniel.
Color by Harry Theaker and DizWallis. Introduced by Philip Pullman, this hefty gift book gathers together the unabridged texts for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. Extras include leaflet stories originally inserted into the Alice books, a deleted episode from Through the Looking Glass, and an account, featuring archival material, of the creation of Alice. (Unfortunately) colorized illustrations, wide margins, and large font make this especially appealing for younger Alice fans.

Charming Classics series.
Illustrated by
John Tenniel.
Each of these "deluxe editions" of classic novels are packaged with a gimmicky necklace (thus the "charm" in the series title). For collections, the value of these unabridged hardcovers is the inexpensive price.
