    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).

    The Wicked Beginnings of a Baker Street Classic!

    The Wicked Beginnings of a Baker Street Classic! by Ray Betzner From The Baker Street Journal Vol. 57, No. 1 (Spring 2007), pp. 18 - 27. www.BakerStreetJournal.com The Baker Street Journal continues to be the leading Sherlockian publication since its founding in 1946 by Edgar W. Smith. With both serious scholarship and articles that “play the game,” the Journal is essential reading for anyone interested in Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and a world where it is always 1895. www.BakerStreetJournal.com THE WICKED BEGINNINGS OF A BAKER STREET CLASSIC! by RAY BETZNER In the early 1930s, when pulps were the guilty pleasures of the American maga- zine business, Real Detective was just another bedsheet promising sex, sin, and sensationalism for a mere two bits. With a color cover that featured a sultry moll, a gun-toting cop, or a sneering mobster, it assured the reader that when he got the magazine back to his garage or basement, he would be entertained by the kind of delights not found in The Bookman or The Atlantic Monthly. And yet, for a moment in December 1932, a single article featuring the world’s first consulting detective elevated the standards of Real Detective to something approaching respectability. Starting on page 50, between “Manhattan News Flash” (featuring the kidnapping of little John Arthur Russell) and “Rah! Rah! Rah! Rotgut and Rotters of the ’32 Campus” (by Densmore Dugan ’33) is a three-quarter-page illustration by Frederic Dorr Steele showing Sherlock Holmes in his dressing gown, standing beneath the headline: “Mr. Holmes of Baker Street: The Discovery of the Great Detective’s Home in London.” Com- pared with “I am a ‘Slave!’ The Tragic Confession of a Girl who ‘Went Wrong,’” the revelations behind an actual identification for 221B seems posi- tively quaint.

Elizabeth Chenault and Imre Kalanyos at the Rare Book Collection were instrumental in helping me with the texts in their collection. Their patience and professionalism cannot be overstated. Special thanks go to my advisor, Dr. Jerry D. Saye for supporting and encouraging me throughout the program. This work is dedicated to my husband, whose steadfast love and support keeps me going.

June, 2000. pages. Advisor: Jerry D. Saye This study examines the role of author, reader and publisher in the creation of the Sherlock Holmes legacy. Each entity participated in the inculcation of this cultural phenomenon. This includes Conan Doyle’s creation of the character and his perception of that creation, the context of the stories as seen through the reader’s eye, and the publishers’ own actions as intermediary and as agent. The examination of 160 Holmes texts at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Wilson Library Rare Book Collection provides insights into the manipulation of the book as object during Conan Doyle’s life, including such elements as cover design, advertisements and illustrations.

We picture the ama- teur sleuth, vain, aloof, tall, lithe, with a fondness for pipes, violins, drugs, capes, and deerstalker hats. We remember tales of the expert detective who solves crimes through investigation, observation, deduction, and logical interpretation of evidence. But who was his creator, this man called Sir Arthur Conan Doyle? When did he live? What were his interests? How did he become a ‘Sir’? Does his work reflect a literary period? Was he responsible for defining the genre of detective fiction? What is the quality of his writing? What kind of a Victorian was he? How was he regarded by his contemporaries? Such questions as these that scholars (and fans) pursue can now be answered at the Uni- versity of Michigan because of the gift of the Parker Family Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Col- lection. Numbering over 2,000 items, the collection consists of Doyle’s poetry and his Copyright 2009 by the University of Michigan Library writings in fiction, true crime, war and propaganda, and spiritualism.
