It is the first story to feature the character of Sherlock Holmes, who would later become one of the most famous and iconic literary detective characters. The book's title derives from a speech given by Holmes to his companion Doctor Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder investigation as his Study in Scarlet: There s the scarlet thread of murder running through the colorless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it. www.TIAS.com/stores/bleeckerantiques New item at Bleecker Street Antiques : A Study In Scarlet - The Hound of the Baskervilles http://pages.tias.com/13733/PictPage/3923662753.html This is an ashtray from Julius Monk's cabaret - The Upstairs at The Downstairs Julius Withers Monk was born Nov. 10, 1912, in Spencer, N.C. He arrived in New York in the early 1930's and played the piano at the bar at One Fifth Avenue in Greenwich Village. In the 1960's Julius Monk worked at a San Francisco club, where Murray Grand, a pianist, singer and songwriter, found him. When Mr. Grand was offered a position to manage a New York club, the Purple Onion, and asked Julius to help. Mr. Grand renamed the club the Downstairs because it was located in a cellar, at 51st Street and Sixth Avenue. Mr. Grand put together a show called quot;Four Below quot; with skits and songs by Michael Brown, and the team of Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt who later went on to create The Fantasticks . On opening night, March 4, 1956, Mr. Grand found that the sign outside proclaimed Julius Monk's Downstairs Presents Four Below. Mr. Grand was not mentioned in the program, not even as the writer of his own songs. But Four Below,which Mr. Gavin identifies as the first legitimate cafe revue in New York City, became the hit of the season and started a series of Monk revues that set the tone for New York cabaret for a decade. This ashtray came from the estate of George Curley, a stage manager and lighting technician at Julius Monk's. George also played Mortimer in the original cast of The Fantasticks. www.TIAS.com/stores/bleeckerantiques New item at Bleecker Street Antiques : Julius Monks Ashtray - The Upstairs at the Downstairs http://pages.tias.com/13733/PictPage/3923662752.html Vintage Inland Hand Blown Glass Cara-Set - Large Carafe 12 cups and 4 Carafettes 2 cups with plastic trivets and decorated with platinum.
