Happy “A Study In Scarlet” Day!

March 4th, 1881 is the day of the murder at Lauriston Gardens, so everyone celebrate with a glass full of poison! Er… wait… please don’t. Try kool-aid instead. Or just some beer or cider or water. ANYWHO!

Above you’ll find the cover for A Study In Scarlet that appeared in Beaton’s Christmas Annual in 1887 and the original drawing of Holmes & crew by D.H. Friston.
