Attend St. Louis' Weekend
at Baskerville Hall
even if you couldn't be there!!
Everyone in attendance at the Westport
Plaza hotel was a descendant of Sir Henry Baskerville! There was
something for every Sherlockian taste ranging from pub chow and
chatter, through delightful Sherlockian whimsy, to learned presentations.
The program even included a serious literary discussion panel
by noted mystery authors John Lutz, Francis Nevins, Jr. and Robert
Randisi. Meet, on these recordings, famous Sherlockians Barb Roscoe,
Jessica Young, Brad Keefauver, Gordon Speck, Joe Eckrich, Greg
Sullivan, Peter Crupe, Roy Pilot, David Hammer, and many others.
Bill Cochran's discourse "Irregular Spirits" on playing the
game is a "must" for every Sherlockian, whether seasoned or
neophyte. Rosemary Michaud's poetry (a toast to The Hound)
and song (Poor Sir Henry) are utter delights. And then
- that great Baskervillian country-western ballad, I Wanna
be the Hound, (adapted from I Wanna be a Dawg, copyright
1998, Werblow, Atkins, & Bryan, Vital Organs Music) should be
in every Sherlockian's music library! The entire weekend was respectfully
dedicated to the memory of that great St. Louis Sherlockian, Art
Schroeder, who died on August 26, 1999 after a protracted illness.

Art's
Audio: "The Double-Good Fortune of Mr. Henry Baker and His Lucky
Goose" and
"The Forgotten Victim" Audio Cassette
The
late Art Schroeder had one of the most creative minds that it
has ever been our pleasure to encounter. He also had a keen, albeit
a tad unusual, sense of humor. In "Mr. Henry Baker and His Lucky
Goose," Mary Schroeder gives a performance worthy of an Academy
Award. Imagine, too - a battered, abandoned safe, once belonging
to Grimesby Roylott, is unearthed and forced opened to reveal
some serpentine remains ("The Forgotten Victim"). Scratched on
the walls is an array of mysterious glyphs, and, therefrom, unfolds
the tragic tale! Mary Schroeder actually tops her performance
as Mrs. Henry Baker in the demanding and sensitive role of the
famous Indian Swamp Adder. Dr. Schroeder is aided by an all-star
cast of eminent Sherlockians! Barbara Roscoe's performance as
"Bubbles" is truly priceless! Art's audio "dramas" are
delivered to you on a C-90 audiocassette in a Norelco box. PG
rated; Language; Dr. Watson is predisposed to deliver a few Anglo
Saxon expletives.

SHERLOCK
HOLMES AND THE MARK OF THE BEAST THE AUDIO
Listening to Mr. Ronald
Weyman narrate his own novel is the next best thing to being invited
into Dr. Watson's sitting room for the spinning of a personal
Holmesian "reminiscence." The Baker Street Journal
characterized this pastiche as "...well-written...engaging...a
ripping good yarn." Mr. Weyman's writing and reading styles
preserve a remarkably authentic "Watsonian" atmosphere.
A true-to-type cast of characters, including sea captains, German
agents, colorful French-Canadian and Irish personalities, and
a beautiful woman ("...delicate, sensitive...a creature not
of this world of common mortals.") escort the listener from
London, across the Atlantic on a Cunard liner, up the St. Lawrence
to Montreal. The Mark of the Beast is a spy thriller in
which murder, Hiram Maxim (famous inventor of the machine gun),
the Fenians, French-Canadian separatists, plots against the existence
of The Empire, (indeed, against the very social and political
order of the world!), and a variety of historically and scientifically
accurate affairs of the late 19th century are interwoven into
a riveting Sherlock Holmes mystery set during The Great Hiatus.
Complete and unabridged (320 minutes) and delivered in a vinyl
storage case with graphics from the original book.
