That's good. I thought the case involving the former wife of the producer of the Sherlock Holmes TV show in the 1950s (phew!) sounded nutty.

This page on Sherlockian.net clearly now has to be updated , but it shows that the copyrights (and trademarks) sure do get convoluted. Who knew that the "official" Sherlock Holmes website was actually run by a memorabilia company?


Just so everyone is updated, here is a link to Klinger's Free Sherlock website with the lastest on the case.
