Could anyone imagine that Mrs. Hudson included in that price a room that was isolated at the far end of the building on a different floor? There is now a safe which is mentioned in The Adventure of the Six Napoleons in the wall hidden behind the curtain. This omission was conveyed to me in 2013 by some 4th grade students and their teacher. I suggested that the safe was hidden, but finally fixed the problem by the time these clever students were ready to graduate from college.

That article also points out that the simple bay window in my previous illustrations should have been a more complex bow window. Then it displays a modified terraced house floor plan to which a bow window has been crudely added.A coal scuttle containing cigars, pipes and tobacco: The Musgrave Ritual and The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone I started out with the intention of conforming the general layout in the third version to a terraced house which seems to be the trend among recent 221B Baker Street depictions, including movies and TV dramas. But after some research I rejected this idea as unsupported and causing more problems than it solves. See the section below, Was 221B Baker Street a Terraced House? for more details. someone to go halves with him in some nice rooms which he had found, and which were too much for his purse. I have outlined the three rooms in red to show how absurd such an idea really is. It is simply out of the question. Whenever anyone asked me if they could use the illustration in a publication or game, I freely granted permission. This increased its exposure and made it famous all around the world.

ISBN 0-460-03029-9.Conan Doyle fathered five children. Two with his first wife—Mary Louise (28 January 1889 – 12 June 1976), and Arthur Alleyne Kingsley, known as Kingsley (15 November 1892 – 28 October 1918). With his second wife he had three children—Denis Percy Stewart (17 March 1909 – 9 March 1955), second husband in 1936 of Georgian Princess Nina Mdivani (circa 1910 – 19 February 1987; former sister-in-law of Barbara Hutton); Adrian Malcolm (19 November 1910–3 June 1970) and Jean Lena Annette (21 December 1912–18 November 1997). The original art work and printing adds an interesting element to this volume. But, in the end, it is the tales of Holmes that make this book attractive. Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle was born the third of ten siblings on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh, Scotland. His father, Charles Altamont Doyle, a talented illustrator, was born in England of Irish descent, and his mother, born Mary Foley, was Irish. They were married in 1855. Although he is now referred to as "Conan Doyle", the origin of this compound surname (if that is how he meant it to be understood) is uncertain. His baptism record in the registry of St Mary's Cathedral in Edinburgh gives 'Arthur Ignatius Conan' as his Christian name, and simply 'Doyle' as his surname. It also names Michael Conan as his godfather. The books were not illustrated, but the flat at 221B Baker Street flat began to take shape in my imagination.

A reading lamp which Holmes turned away from himself and towards a vacant chair: The Five Orange Pips The edition that I am reading was published in 1976. It is handsomely bound in the manner of a book intended to look impressive on a shelf without having the desired effect. That floor plan supposedly conforms with all of the stories in the Canon including in The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone -- except that when Holmes and Watson try to leave the premises undetected, they will run face to face into the villain who is coming up the stairs because their secret exit was taken away. After leaving, Holmes finds that the clerk at the nearby Underground station remembers seeing West on the evening in question. Deeply shaken by something, he had taken a train to London Bridge.

One could say that this illustration took 27 years, but the actual time I worked on it was three months. Illustration of a pantomime at Drury Lane for The Illustrated London News, 8 January 1876, reprinted in Daily Life in Victorian England by Sally Mitchell, p.214 (Westport, Conn.: Greenwood Press, 1996) As the collection of stories grew, 221B Baker Street emerged as something truly fascinating and unlike any other dwelling in London. Holmes had described it in his characteristic understated manner as some nice rooms which he had found, and which were too much for his purse. How can a person write such fascinating accounts so consistently, even I jettison the few uninteresting of them?
