"After all, it is a question of money with these fellows, and I have the British treasury behind me. If it's on the market I'll buy it -- if it means another penny on the income-tax. It is conceivable that the fellow might hold it back to see what bids come from this side before he tries his luck on the other..." --Sherlock Holmes, from the The Second Stain

Memorabilia Brettiana is a graphic listing of as many Brettish-related (or presumably related) assests and/or remarkably Sherlockian eccentric novelties that I have been able to locate. This section shall be updated further when more new items come to my notice. The following memorabilia comes from various sources -- both enquired and searched for THE most inexpensive offering available. Increments are either in US dollar ($) or UK sterling (£), unless addressed otherwise. To perform foreign exchange rate conversion, use the Universal Currenct Converter.

There is an item whose whereabouts has been in constant question, "The Reichenbach Waterfall Portrait" -- which is mounted above the fireplace of the Baker Street study -- has been in demand for a number of years. It was personally acquired by set designer, Micheal Grimes, who accordingly found the mid or late-1800s print in a book. He blew it up, framed it, and hung it to replace the usual framed mirror, thus preventing accidently shots of camera and crew on film. Jeremy found it as a great joke, an irony which Holmes could ponder over during a case. NOW Miss Sheila Matthews has recently placed new information to the editor's attention. Presently the portrait is in display at "Jeremy Brett Exhibition" at Sherlock Holmes Memorabilia Company in the near future. They will soon provide copies of this portrait in its original size for purchasing to anyone whom desires a copy!

For other listings of Brettish nostalgia, please consult Publicationa Brettiana, Paraphernalia Brettiana de Exotica, and Influencing Those Inspired Illustrators. If there is any Brettian who knows where to obtain other Brettish-related products, the editor would be much obliged in receiving the information.

SOLD OUT ! SOLD OUT ! SOLD OUT

As well all know, Sherlock Holmes locked the Blue Carbuncle in his strong-box, annoucing his intention to "...drop a line to the Countess to say that we have it." Classic Specialties believe that "Holmes could never have let such an auspicious case come to such an inauspicious end!...And after due consideration, Holmes perceived the advantage of returning the Carbuncle to the Countess of Morcar in person. He donned his most formal apparrel and asked Billy the Page to summon a four-wheeler...That final moment...Holmes paused for a last appreciative gaze at the Blue Carbuncle before beginning his sojourn to the Hotel Cosmopolitan and the audience with the Countess..." And that precious moment was brilliantly captured and forever preserved by Ms Barbara Gipson. Coloured illustration, semi-glossed compiled in a pack of 10 with matching envelopes. Inside prints an adorable adaptation of a Sherlockian "12 Days of Chirstmas" and wishes everyone the "Compliments of the Season..." $3.75 (item CRD/BLUE).

Artwork by TOM RIESCHICK

Tom Rieschick's Mysterious Prints

"I have always loved to create art," starts Mr Tom Rieschick, "and felt like combining my two passions (Jeremy's portrayal of Sherlock Holmes and artwork), so I found a portrait of JB in some magazine and drew his portrait in a style I never tried before -- pointillism using pen and ink (dots upon dots!)... I showed [Jeremy] my artwork and offered him a few of my prints. It was interesting how he only accepted the prints of Basil Rathbone because he said Basil was 'his Sherlock Holmes'. He also autographed one of my originals..." From the Tom Rieschick Collection, 8.5-by-11-inch prints compiled on natural, warm-white bristol board. $10.00 each, 3 prints for $25.00

These were decorative dolls with very lengthy legs, long enough to make even Barbie jealous, which stretch along the bottom of a door to keep out the draft.
Classic Specialties is proud to present the very first in a series of "Collectible Sherlockian Draft Dolls." Despite the fact that modern, energy efficient, home without drafts are remarkably commonplace now, these beautiful dolls are great for any Holmesian collection. They can sit on shelves, or tables with legs dangling over, or hung over the doorknob -- the manner in which draft dolls were originally stored during the summers for the hands of the dolls have been sewn together for such a purpose. Each of the doll's faces has been hand-painted so that no two are exactly alike. Ms Thomas' dolls come in 3 designs: a deerstalker and tweed "Country Holmes" (item DOLL/SHCOUNTRY); a top-hatted, formally-dressed "Town Holmes" (item DOLL/SHFORMAL); and, of course, dressed in Harris tweed, the ever-faithful "Watson" (item DOLL/WATSON).
