CD Let's Shuffle
Master Thief Meets Master Detective
The French edition: Arsène Lupin, gentleman-cambrioleur |
Inspired by the first season of Netflix TV series "Lupin" (brilliant but depressing to me), I recently read Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar for the first time. This is the original 1907 book of short stories that launched the series by French author Maurice Leblanc.
The final story in the collection is aptly called "Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late." At least, it is in this book and in come editions. In other places -- including Ellery Queen's famous Misadventures of Sherlock Holmes anthology, the great detective appears under the guise of "Holmlock Shears."
The name changes again the in the novel Arsène Lupin vs. Herlock Sholmes. And appropriately so, for Sholmes is not a pastiche of Holmes but a parody of him. I blogged about that a couple of years ago, as you can read by clicking here.
Sherlockians are probably most familiar with the novel, but Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar (also known as The Exploits of Arsène Lupin) was more enjoyable for me because the Holmes character wasn't such a burlesque.
There is also a little Easter egg for Sherlockians in the short story collection: The penultimate tale is entitled "The Black Pearl," which cannot help but recall the black pearl of the Borgias in "The Adventure of the Six Napoleons."
Let's Hear It for the Purple, Blue, and Mouse!
I’ve always loved the official tri-color tie of the Baker Street Irregulars. And I knew that its origins went back to BSI founder Christopher Morley. But I learned the details only recently. Jon Lellenberg tells the story in Irregular Crises of the Late ’Forties, volume 5 of his BSI History Project.
In a letter to his friend Helen Hare on December 15, 1949, Morley wrote:
I want to sell the BSI boys the idea of adopting colorsfor the club; to be sewn in either a rosette for the lapel, or even in a necktie. The colors, of course, to be Purple, Blue, and Mouse these being the three shades through which Sherlock’s dressing gown passed in its fadings. A fine rich purple; a pleasing “electric blue” (like the dress Violet Hunter had to wear in Copper Beeches!); and then a furry, soft, comfortable mouselike gray. Have you got a mouse at 7 Jackson Street to test the gray? That’s the trouble with new houses; no mice.
I thought maybe, if not imposing yr gallant patience, you wd stitch together a small rosette in these colors for me to wear at the Dinner -- or even a necktie! The colors must be in that order of juxtaposition: purple, blue, gray. Don’t you think it wd be handsome? And say, what an idea for merchandising: the Sherlock Holmes Dressing Gown, in those three colors. Wyn’t you design it, & bet we cd sell it to some imaginative mfr. (pp. 384-385)
(Morley wrote briskly and with frequent abbreviations in casual correspondence.)
The woman who Morley soft-soaped earlier in the letter as “the most expert & subtle seamstress known” delivered the first BSI tie in time for Morley to wear it at the January 6, 1950 BSI dinner. He presumably wore it many times thereafter, including a June 1951 trip to England (photo, p. 417, Irregular Crises).
My purple, blue, and mouse tie is, of course, the bowtie version. It formerly belonged to my friend and supporter Monica Schmidt, who gave it to me as a present. It will look great with a tuxedo!
It's Good to Be Back in Person
Ann Brauer Andriacco leads the discussion of "The Beryl Coronet" |
The world of in-person Sherlockian events is slowly stirring back into action wherever possible in accordance with local health restrictions. On Friday, The Tankerville Club of Cincinnati had its first such meeting since “the world went all awry” last year.
I’m grateful that the club, which I coordinate as “Most Scandalous Member,” was able to meet four times via Zoom over the past 12 months, and it was wonderful to have friends join those meetings from around the country. But I’d forgotten how much fun an in-person meeting can be – the bon mots, the spontaneous interaction, the hugs.
The meeting took place in the same casual restaurant where we assembled in March 2020, about a week before the state shut down restaurants. Members and guests came from Indianapolis, Columbus, Detroit, and Dallas (by way of Columbus). We had some enthusiastic new members as well as about a third of 31 attendees whose names appear on the 1981 membership list.
Activities of The Tankerville Club are fairly typical for a Baker Street Irregulars scion society: toasts, Sherlockian Show-and-Tell, reports from members who have had Sherlockian adventures elsewhere, a quiz, discussion of a story, an auction of books for the benefit of the club treasury, and a recitation of “221B” to end the evening.
The focus of Friday’s meeting was “The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet.” One peculiarity of our group is that our toasts are not always to people. Carolyn Senter lifted her glass to what Holmes called “an old maxim of mine”:
The iconic quote which appears in tonight’s story, that is, “when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth,” and how it relates to tonight’s meeting is the focus of my toast. Specific reference is made to the three concepts contained therein, viz., impossibilities, improbabilities, and truth.
Impossibilities with respect to this evening are easy to eliminate. Unless we have the same magic as Hermione from the Harry Potter books, we cannot be in two places at the same time!
That takes us to improbabilities. Now, if we take a moment and ponder the myriad events, quirks of happenstance, and all the serendipitous incidents which led each one of us to being first aware of tonight’s meeting and, second, having the interest in the topic of tonight’s meeting, both are most improbable – especially considering that the focus is on an entity whose literary agent died nearly a century ago!! And yet, the truth is, we are here!
Let’s raise our glasses and toast all those impossibilities and improbabilities that led to the truth of our being together once again to celebrate scholarship, camaraderie, and friendship! Here! Here!
Barbara Herbert, the woman of the Tankerville Club, brought some beryls given to her by her late husband, Paul D. Herbert, founder and Official Secretary of the Tankerville Club. She toasted the titular crown in these words:
Let us join in homage to a renowned object of history. Bent and tattered, with three stones missing, this unique object weaves a wonderful mosaic for Holmes and Watson to unravel as we become acquainted with colorful and interesting characters, while immersing ourselves in another fascinating mystery from the pen of Dr. John H. Watson. Now let us raise our glasses to “one of the most precious possessions of the empire” – the beryl coronet.
Even more precious is the company of good friends.
Books Galore at Prices to Adore
Denny Dobry at his 221B |
Denny Dobry is probably best known in the Sherlockian world for his incredibly detailed and accurate recreation of 221B Baker Street his home in Reading, PA. He is also in charge of selling books for the benefit of the Baker Street Irregulars Trust Historical Archives. You can tour the sitting room and get a great deal on Sherlockian materials at Denny’s Book Fair and Open House on Aug 21.
“Thousands of books will be available for purchase at rock-bottom prices,” Denny says – and neither part of his statement is an exaggeration. He has a vast inventory of donated books priced to sell quickly. Included are many editions of the Canon, rare Sherlockian scholarship titles, hundreds of pastiches and parodies, a variety of non-Sherlockian Conan Doyle works, titles from other mystery writers (Sayers, Christie, Queen, Starrett etc.), extensive selections from Christopher Morley and P. G. Wodehouse, and lots of crime and British reference works.
This is where Ross Davies would say, “But there’s more!” Denny also has statues, glassware, mugs, games, jigsaw puzzles, and posters, as well as publications by the Baker Street Irregulars Press. In terms of both volume and variety Sherlockian items, nothing else compares.
So, mark your calendar now for Aug. 21 and build a few days of vacation around it. Carpool with a Sherlockian friend! The hours of the Open House/Book Fair will be from 10 a.m. until everyone is gone. The address is 5003 Stony Run Drive, Reading, PA. Reading is 100 miles from Manhattan, 80 miles from Baltimore and 40 miles from Philadelphia.
Lunch will be available. If some out of towners stay over Friday and/or Saturday night, Denny would be happy to arrange for getting together for dinner.
