From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mischmasch was a periodical that Lewis Carroll wrote and illustrated for the amusement of his family from 1855 to 1862. It is notable for containing the earliest version of the poem " Jabberwocky", which Carroll would later expand and publish in Through the Looking-Glass. [1] It was collected into The Rectory Umbrella and Mischmasch, published in 1932. [2]

In German, Mischmasch (masc.), pronounced [ˈmɪʃmaʃ], also refers to a disorderly mixture of things, see mish mash.
