Landing page captured for the 2026-11-11 issue.

For: Sherlock Holmes readers and illustration researchers
Worth noticing: The homepage says GIS geolocation mapping is in progress, with new locations added regularly.

Field notes

The navigation separates story and character galleries from the main browse routes, and the featured entries pair individual image captions with the Holmes adventures they belong to. The about sections place Paget’s drawings in the context of The Strand Magazine, while the footer lists an ISBN and Linke Mik Communications. The homepage also marks GIS geolocation work as ongoing rather than presenting it as a completed feature.
