The Five Orange Pips
Written by Arthur Conan Doyle Illustrated by P. James Macaluso Jr. LEGO® is a trademark of the LEGO Group of companies. The LEGO group has not been involved in nor has it in any other way licensed or authorised the publication of this book.
In this book series, the short stories comprising The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes have been amusingly illustrated using only LEGO® brand minifigures and bricks. The illustrations recreate, through custom designed LEGO models, the composition of the black and white drawings by Sidney Paget that accompanied the original publication of these adventures appearing in The Strand Magazine from July 1891 to June 1892. Paget’s iconic illustrations are largely responsible for the popular image of Sherlock Holmes, including his deerstalker cap and Inverness cape, details never mentioned in the writings of Conan Doyle.
THE FIVE ORANGE PIPS: John Openshaw visits Baker Street to consult Sherlock Holmes as to the mysterious deaths of both his uncle and father upon the arrival of letters containing five dried orange pips and bearing the mark “K.K.K.”. The young gentleman further relates that he too has received a similar envelope with instructions to surrender some papers. Holmes quickly deduces that his client faces imminent danger from a secret society in America.
"This is something new, and quite delightful. A Scandal in Bohemia, the first of a series, contains Conan Doyle’s original text illustrated with full-colour photographs by P James Macaluso Jr. The photos, inspired by Paget’s illustrations and the Granada TV series, depict scenes created in Lego – charming and remarkably clever!“ -The Sherlock Holmes Society of London
