Found: Postcard.

This one was inside a small paperback version of Alice, at page 38, the third page of the "Pig & Pepper" chapter, facing a black & white line drawing of a character called "The Duchess." (Picture can be found here and text can be found here.)

I snapped some photos, but I'm not sure how the mods want pics posted. Someone PM me and let me know, please?

Yup. I found the card at the library, in the general fiction section on the first floor.

I was searching their online catalogue the night before, and there are Alice books located elsewhere in the library, in the literature reference section. I tried to check for them, but I hadn't written down the call numbers, and the library's computer system was down, so I couldn't check the catalogue to find out exactly where they were.

I also checked the video section because the catalogue said that they had at least one copy of the video of Alice, but it wasn't on the shelves when I was there on Monday.

There was one other card in the general fiction section, out of a total of about six Alice books available at that particular location. I didn't find the book with the Celebrex post-its, though. Don't know if someone checked that out, or just took out the post-its. Both the card that I found and the second card were inside the pages, not inside the cover.

so wait, do all the books still have cards when people go? that means someone is reloading them.

No, I don't think anyone is reloading them. The first person on the scene said they found five or six books, all with cards in them. By the time I was there on Monday, there were only two left.

I hadn't had a chance to stop by. Will do so tonight. Who wants to bet there are no cards left?

Just finished reading Alice in Wonderland (thanks for the link bosch). I read it in my youth but I don't remember it all that well and, after reading it again, I'm sure some of it would have gone over my head anyway. It's a brilliant piece of literature really.

I got one. It was the last one, in the last book I checked (which was the middle book on the shelf) but I got one. Color me happy.

Now that we're being pointed so much towards Alice in Wonderland, could the 24 digit code be a book code of some sort? I don't have Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, can somebody help out?
