Born #OTD in 1892 - Philip St. John Basil Rathbone (13 June 1892 - 21 July 1967). Through 14 films and countless hours of radio, his cinematic portrayal of Sherlock Holmes stands as the most iconic and influential media representation of the character in the latter half of the 20th century.

Nice merch from the good people at Sherlock &Co #SherlockHolmes

A happy heavenly birthday to Basil Rathbone who was my gateway drug into all things Holmes.

Checked in on the ACD plaque at Circular Quay in Sydney - still in good shape. #sherlock

Sorry should be Holmesy I shrunk Mrs Watson

I found this particularly pleasing paperweight in Harrogate today #SherlockHolmes

Happy Birthday to Sir Arthur #SherlockHolmes

Happy Sherlock Holmes Day! And happy birthday to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who has always been a 'fixed point in a changing age' for me.

Sitting around with some time on my hands, reflecting upon the Holmes's I've enjoyed. sherlockpeoria.blogspot.com/2026/05/what...

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - The Naval Treaty (8th May 1984). "What a lovely thing a rose is".

“It is indeed, a fearful place. The torrent, swollen by the melting snow, plunges into a tremendous abyss, from which the spray rolls up like the smoke from a burning house” #sherlockholmes

NEW EPISODE: Science Fiction and Arthur Conan Doyle, with Anastasia Klimchynskaya. @anaklimchy.bsky.social joins us to talk about: humanity's progress and insignificance; scifi and gothic; the significance of The Lost World; magic versus science, and much more. bit.ly/DOD74sn bit.ly/DODoyle

Yes, I am a big kid 😀 #sherlockholmes

My favourite film and cinema's greatest ever villain, the suave but sinister Dr Julian Karswell, played by the brilliant Niall MacGinnis 🖤

This is a great idea btw #sherlockholmes

NOW ON YOUTUBE: Episode 73 - 'A Regimental Scandal' (1892) - ACD's short story about cheating at cards that is a veiled commentary on the Royal Baccarat scandal. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ6c... Shownotes bit.ly/DOD73sn

Finished it yesterday! It's a bit bare bones and too quick, but the 2nd half ties everything together nicely. Seeing Holmes be a reclusive crime solving enthusiast was a breath of fresh air after seeing so many exaggerated adaptions in tv and film!

Bit of a shelf

If you don't have lots of money (like me) but are immersed with other fans in Conan Doyle, it is very easy to understand why people would buy a forgery at a "too good to be true" price. An important expose of forgeries, ACD, and eBay: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ8E...

A nice EBay find

No spoiler alerts in the Strand 😃 #sherlockholmes

Should I have been surprised at the level of Guy Ritchie's second act for Sherlock Holmes? sherlockpeoria.blogspot.com/2026/03/the-...

Look at the beautiful cover in this 1936 German edition of Sherlock Holmes stories, titled after “The Dancing Men”.

NEW EPISODE: 'A Pastoral Horror' (1890). A Tyrolean village is terrorised by a serial killer, armed with an alpine pickaxe... Chat about: early crime fiction; Jack the Ripper; Feldkirch; werewolves and cuckoo clocks! bit.ly/DODoyle; bit.ly/DOD72sn; #ArthurConanDoyle

Night of the Demon (1957) timeline: October 28. “You've sold your bill of goods too well, because I believe you now. I believe that in five minutes something monstrous and horrible is going to happen. And when it does, you're going to be here so that whatever happens to me will happen to you.”

"The Adventure of the Three Students" is complete! The three suspects are represented at the top, the crime scene is at the bottom. My Watson said it was one of his favorites ☺️ #sherlockholmes #miniatures #art #booksky #mysteries #victorian

I’m on my way home from Southampton and was sort of in the area, so I stopped by to pay my respects to the great man #sherlockholmes
