  • Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press 2021
    Jan 21 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) did not gather in New York to celebrate the Great Detective’s 167th birthday this year, but the somewhat shorter long weekend offered plenty of events, thanks to Zoom and other modern technol- ogy. Detailed reports will be available soon at the web-site of The Baker Street Irregulars <www.bakerstreetirregulars.com>, but here are few brief paragraphs to tide you over: The BSI’s Distinguished Speaker on Thursday was Andrew Lycett, the author of two fine books about Conan Doyle; his topic was “Conan Doyle’s Questing World” (and close to 400 people were able to attend the virtual lecture); the event also included the announcement by Steve Rothman, editor of the Baker Street Journal, of the winner of the Morley-Montgomery Award for the best article the BSJ last year: Jessica Schilling (for her “Just His Type: An Analysis of the Découpé Warning in The Hound of the Baskervilles”). Irregulars and guests gathered on Friday for the BSI’s annual dinner, with Andrew Joffe offering the traditional first toast to Nina Singleton as The Woman, and the program continued with the usual toasts, rituals, and pap- ers; this year the toast to Mrs. Hudson was delivered by the lady herself, splendidly impersonated by Denny Dobry from his recreation of the sitting- room at 221B Baker Street. Mike Kean (the “Wiggins” of the BSI) presented the Birthday Honours (Irregular Shillings and Investitures) to Dan Andri- acco (St. Saviour’s Near King’s Cross), Deborah Clark (Mrs. Cecil Forres- ter), Carla Coupe (London Bridge), Ann Margaret Lewis (The Polyphonic Mo- tets of Lassus), Steve Mason (The Fortescue Scholarship), Ashley Polasek (Singlestick), Svend Ranild (A “Copenhagen” Label), Ray Riethmeier (Mor- rison, Morrison, and Dodd), Alan Rettig (The Red Lamp), and Tracy Revels (A Black Sequin-Covered Dinner-Dress).

    FOOTPRINTS OF A GIGANTIC HUND by MICHAEL ROSS After two years of Hound centenaries one might expect that everything had been said about this story. Still, there is another Hound centenary to be cele- brated in 2003, which gives me the opportunity to relate its extraordinary suc- cess in a country which, in canonical circles, is better remembered for its music and spies than for its interest in the Holmes stories: Germany. One hundred years ago, in March 1903, Der Hund von Baskerville1 was first published in Ger- man translation, by Lutz of Stuttgart, who had introduced Holmes to German readers in 1894 and had published all his subsequent exploits. The German first edition of The Hound of the Baskervilles became a great success, and the story had been reprinted and re-issued many times in the following decades. It has been translated into German no less than nine times between 1903 and 1987. The huge success of Der Hund von Baskerville with the German public is also indi- cated by an amazing number of theater plays and films, as well as a TV show and even a stage musical based on it. Some of these have the honor to be “Houndian” firsts in their respective fields. In the first decade of the 20th century, the theater (including opera, oper- etta, and vaudeville) was still the most popular place for entertainment in Ger- many. Theater managers were constantly on the lookout for popular plays with which to fill their houses and their purses, and it was only a question of time until they struck upon the detective play.

Sherlock Holmes saß am Fruhst¨ uckstisch.¨ Ich stand auf dem Kaminteppich und nahm den Stock zur Hand, den unser Besucher gestern abend zuruckgelassen¨ hatte. Es war ein schones,¨ dickes Stuck¨ Holz mit rundem Knauf – ein sogenannter Polizistenknuppel.¨ Unmittelbar unter dem Knopf befand sich ein fast zollbreiter silberner Reif mit einer Inschrift: James Mortimer, M.

Es war so recht ein altmodischer Hausdoktorstock — wurdig,¨ derb, vertrauenerweckend. “Nun, Watson, was machst du daraus?” Holmes saß mit dem Rucken¨ gegen mich, ich hatte nichts gethan, woraus er auf meine Beschaftigung¨ hatte¨ schließen konnen.¨ “Woher wußtest du, was ich machte? Ich glaube wahrhaftig, du hast ein paar Augen im Hinterkopf.” – 6– “Wenn auch das nicht, so habe ich doch eine blitzblanke, silberplattierte Kaffeekanne vor mir,” antwortete er. “Aber sage mir, Watson, was machst du aus unseres Besuchers Stock? Da er uns unglucklicherweise¨ nicht angetroffen hat und wir keine Ahnung haben, was er von uns will, so erhalt¨ dieses zufallig¨ hier gebliebene Andenken eine gewisse Bedeutung.

    A Holmes and Doyle Bibliography Volume 7 Audio/Visual Materials Alphabetical Listing Compiled by Timothy J. Johnson Minneapolis High Coffee Press 2018 A Holmes & Doyle Bibliography Vol. 7, Audio/Visual Materials, Alphabetical Listing INTRODUCTION This bibliography is a work in progress. It attempts to update Ronald B. De Waal’s comprehensive bibliography, The Universal Sherlock Holmes, but does not claim to be exhaustive in content. New works are continually discovered and added to this bibliography. Readers and researchers are invited to suggest additional content. This volume contains an alphabetical listing of audio-visual materials. Coverage of this material begins around 1994, the final year covered by De Waal's bibliography, but may not yet be totally up-to-date (given the ongoing nature of this bibliography). It is hoped that other titles will be added at a later date. The first volume in this supplement focuses on monographic and serial titles, arranged alphabetically by author or main entry. The second volume presents the exact same information arranged by subject. The third volume focuses on the periodical literature of Doyle and Holmes, listing individual articles alphabetically. The fourth volume includes "core" or "primary" citations from the periodical literature. The fifth volume includes "passing" or "secondary" references to Doyle or Holmes in the periodical literature. The sixth volume organizes the periodical literature according to De Waal's original categories. As the bibliography expands, additional annotations will be provided in order to give the researcher a better idea on the exact Holmesian or Doylean reference contained in each article.

The dog, played by a noble Harlequin Great Dane, is far from the original’s hound-of-hell (“luminous, ghastly and spectral”), appearing more likely to offer affectionate, slobbering licks than savage throat-tears. Other than the peasants’ kilts there’s also little here to signal a UK setting, while the incongruously bright manse is merely given a British baronial gloss with the addition of a few suits of armour.
