[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3400420, member: 10461"]This has been a morning preoccupation so far, if you can call it a preoccupation at all. And yet I found myself opening the box this afternoon. I didn't do any more than pick up five or six pieces out of the row box on top. And again, I only had my cheapo readers on - no loupe - and the light wasn't ideal, so this was basically squinting at little indistinguishable dark discs inside old flips and merely reading a scrawled handwritten inscription or two. So... remember those little bundles wrapped with rubber bands in the earlier box shots? I picked one up to see what the note wrapped around the bundle said. Aha. So far there is still no sign of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle yet, if we're to meet him at all [SIZE=3](I have my doubts)[/SIZE]. [I]But,[/I] the plot doth indeed thicken...
