Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was published in 1865. One hundred years later the first rumblings of psychedelic art and music were beginning to manifest themselves and Lewis Carroll's books were referenced in numerous ways during the late 1960s, from White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane and Carroll's appearance on the sleeve of Sgt.
