About This Book

This book follows the evolution of the public perception of Sherlock Holmes from the detective rendered in the portrait by William Gillette to the portrait by Basil Rathbone. Specifically, it follows the evolution of Holmesian portraiture in England and the United States over a period of 60 years--from the very first portrait by D.H. Friston in 1887 to an advertisement for Basil Rathbone's movie, Hound of the Baskervilles, in 1939.
