A Tale of Two Castles

 
I took this picture while reading and documenting the only known original copy of Holmes' Own Story. (It is housed in the Rare Book Room at the Library of Congress).  
 
Pasted in the back of the book is a collection of newspaper articles published around the time of the Holmes-Pitezel Case. This one features a sketch of the World's Fair Hotel. On the right is my custom made Murder Castle hat. I think the likeness is pretty good.  

Until next time.

XOXO, Kate
