CONAN DOYLE LIGHTER AND SHERLOCK'S PIPES PLUS SOON RARE GALLERY OF BBC 'GASLIGHT' BEHIND SCENES STILLS


A DOUBLE GEM of a #PeterCushing / #SherlockHolmes lot at the Sotheby's Auction back in 1996. 'A GOLD CIGARETTE CASE Inscribed by Sherlock Holmes' creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle .. AND and pipe CLAIMED to have been used by Peter Cushing in his film portrayal of 'Sherlock Holmes', for Hammer films in 1959. This Sherlock Holmes Memorabilia Auction took place on 17th June 1996. As you can see from the publicity photographs, taken at the time of the release of  Hammer films 'Baskervilles' with Cushing, there were MANY pipes, but studying the pics and the film, I don't see the auction pipe! Do you?
