The 1900 souvenir program features cover art and one illustration inside by Pamela “Pixie” Colman Smith, a successful artist and relative of Gillette who is best known for her tarot card illustrations. As with most Sherlockian publications, there were slight changes over time.

The 1902 program substituted a cover illustration by Sewell Collins and reproduced the Morrow poster art inside the program.
