The view omits blank pages, including one side of each color plate, and some content pages are missing. Probable missing content pages include 2 of 8 reported plates (the first two?), a frontispiece (b/w or col), and from the Illustrations list the later b/w drawings and all the color plates.
- Front covers of those two copies show the same illustration of the Tea Party. Its depictions of Alice and the Mad Hatter are radically different from those of the interior illustrations by Robinson. See the Tea Party plate facing p. 94 (viewed at Baldwin Library) and b/w drawings on neighbouring pages.
