Description

Fenno was the first to bundle the “uncopyrightable” Study in Scarlet and Sign of Four with four short stories whose protection under US copyright law it chose to ignore: “A Scandal in Bohemia,” “A Case of Identity,” “The Red-Headed League,” and “The Boscombe Valley Mystery.” The Fenno books were also illustrated with photographs of the famed actor William Gillette, on stage as Sherlock Holmes.
