With the full consent of the estate of the late, and undeniably great, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (which has very wisely registered the name 'Sherlock Holmes' as a trademark), Philip Ardagh - himself a life-long Sherlock Holmes fan - has taken illustrations from issues of âThe Strand Magazineâ and welded them together to create âThe Silly Side of Sherlock Holmes: A Brand New Adventure Using a Bunch of Old Pictures". The title says it all, really. Be prepared for some very silly sleuthing indeed.
