In the analysis of Masafumi Monden, > Alice’s sense of agency is further conveyed by her dress… Little girls’ > dresses in mid- to late nineteenth-century Europe were, even with certain > restrictions, slightly more practical than adults’, and the dress Alice wore > in Tenniel’s illustrations was a fashion current to the time of the book > with a faint hint of the practical future ... Both the character and dress > of Alice thus point out that she is neither assertive nor passive but is > rather positioned comfortably in between the two.

In 1955, Mercedes made another attempt at winning the MM, this time with careful preparation and a more powerful car, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR which was based on the Formula One car (Mercedes-Benz W196), entirely different from their sports cars carrying the 300 SL name. Both young German Hans Herrmann (who had had remarkable previous efforts with Porsche) and Briton Stirling Moss relied on the support of navigators while Juan Manuel Fangio (car #658) preferred to drive alone as usual, as he considered road races dangerous since his co-pilot was killed in South America. Karl Kling also drove alone, in the fourth Mercedes, #701. Similar to his teammates, Moss and his navigator, motor race journalist Denis Jenkinson, ran a total of six reconnaissance laps beforehand, enabling "Jenks" to make course notes (pace notes) on a scroll of paper 18 ft (540 cm) long that he read from and gave directions to Moss during the race by a coded system of 15 hand signals.
