  1. Ooh, nice pics!

    Love those desks. Pity there's no room for a PC. ;-)

  2. Those last two pics are like something out of a Where's Waldo book. Can you spot the magnifying glass? can you spot the revolver? Can you spot the opium pipe? ...okay, maybe not that.

  3. There was a magnifying glass and an opium pipe, but not on Watson's desk. On a little table with Holmes' hat ;)

    Standing there, it is very easy to feel Holmes existing there. Oh yes, and they also had a old man playing Holmes, who very much looked the part, at least to my imagination.

  4. For me, Holmes will always look like Basil Rathbone. :-)

    Wonderful pictures, thanks for sharing!
