Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
In 1920, Vincent Starrett privately printed "The Unique Hamlet: A
Hitherto Unchronicled Adventure of Mr. Sherlock Holmes," a
novelette concerning a most unusual edition of Shakespeare's play.
The edition is believed to have consisted of 110 copies, of which
about 50 are still known to exist among collectors. Starrett, no
stranger to fiction, wrote extensively in the mystery field,
including the 1975 book, "The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes." He
also created his own Chicago-based detective, Jimmy Lavender, whose
stories are very much in the Holmes tradition.
