Sherlock Holmes "The Dancing Men" double-sided illustration (Holmes questioning and Holmes picking up the brass cylinder) / Sidney Paget (1903)

Sale price¥66,000

This is an illustration (double-sided print) from The Dancing Men by Arthur Conan Doyle, which was published in the July 1903 issue of The Strand Magazine. The illustration was by Sidney Paget, known as the illustrator of Sherlock Holmes, and depicts a tense scene midway through the story.

The front page shows Holmes examining the window at the crime scene and deducing that the shot came from outside. A woman's handbag on the desk contains 20 £50 notes, hinting at the motive behind the crime.
The reverse shows Holmes searching the garden and picking up a small brass cylinder, a crucial step towards solving the case.

This is a printed page from The Dancing Men, a story that stands out among the Sherlock Holmes series for its clever use of codes and deductive reasoning. With a detailed illustration on one side and the continuing story bound in type on the other, it conveys the culture of the late Victorian era to the present day.

This work is a double-sided print on one page, with illustrations on both sides.
