So small but so detailed! Excellent! I especially like the eyes and the ring.

I love Basil. He was a great Sherlock and a great villain. You've captured him perfectly!

I thought he was perfect as Holmes, but maybe that's because he was (probably) the first actor I saw in the role.

he was the archetypal Sherlock Holmes, much as I love the modern reboot

There's been lots of great Sherlock adaptions, luckily for us fans.

it's the hair (and my limitations) - Rathbone had a slightly longer & thinner face

Excellent drawing
I am loving the thoughtful expression
I don't recognise this actor, but given the date, that would be why.
The costume is very Sherlock, for the time period.

When I did this card set, I bought a book of reprints of all the original Sherlock Holmes stories complete with their illustrations, and this guy is/was the spitting image of the Holmes depicted there. The moviemakers knew what they were doing
