To start off, here is a layout map of the 221b Baker Street LA room
to help you get your bearings... |
|
Just as you enter, to the left you can make out the fireplace
as your eyes become adjusted to the dim lamplight... |
|
You notice the interesting array of rather curious items
as you step up to the mantel for a closer look... |
|
Ah! There's the famous pipe, the penknife, Holmes' pistol
and there's one of the six Napoleons... |
|
Hmm... I wonder if this one conceals the Borgia pearl... or some other
fabulous jewel? I better not break it to find out... |
|
| Umm... That hat looks interesting... I'd better step closer... |
|
An angry roar rumbles up beneath me...
I guess this bearish fellow is there to guard the treasures! |
|
The brutish fellow allows me a closer look...
I wonder if that's Watson's Campaign hat? |
|
Continuing around the room, I come across the reknown chemistry table
of Sherlock Holmes... |
|
Looking closer, I find a myriad of philosophical instruments
laid out on the table, ready for Holmes' investigations... |
|
| Above them, a shelf, containing more oddments of a scientific vein... |
|
To the right, another set of shelves, containing various
ointments and elixers, with ominous-looking labels... |
|
To the right of that sits a side table between two windows... On the table
are many items of memorabilia; a dark lantern, a gasogene, an examining
glass, papers, statues... and other things from Holmes' and Watson's life... |
|
And... off to the extreme right, in a dark corner behind the
settee, stands the dummy that once saved Holmes' life... |
|
Moving again to the right, adjacent to the board upon which Holmes and
Watson worked out the cipher of the Dancing Men, we find the dining table
where they partake of breakfast and tea... |
|
Next to the dining table is the desk where they attend to their
correspondence... |
|
Back at the chemistry table, we find the world-reknown Prof. Löwenstein in a
deep philosophical discussion with his esteemed colleague, Dr. Schpak... |
