Description
The Strand alerted its readers to the momentous news of Sherlock Holmes’s return in its September 1903 issue. Its 9 × 6-inch advertisement shares a visual kinship with its announcement of the Hound two years earlier: no illustration, no color, just text. But there’s a little more sizzle in its message.
