MONAGHAN, Ted (British, 20th century). A Pair of Original Humorous Sherlock Holmes Cartoon Drawings. [England: ca. 1990s]. Both drawings are full-color mixed media on illustration board, and both are signed at lower corners. Both with printed captions. Including: “My deductions Watson, lead me to believe, that this is the outcome, of what seems to have been, a divergence of opinion, regarding the nature of the beast”. This drawing depicts Holmes, Watson and a constable in Baskerville Hall in a room filled with five murder victims (including the hound). Sight 13 ½ x 18 ¼”. Matted and framed under plexiglass 26 ½ x 29”. And “If my deductions are correct, this is the habitat of a chauvinistic, empirical, musically inept, misogynistic, nicotine and drug-using, egotistical, self-opinionated, fascist bastard.” “Nice to be home again, eh, Watson?” Sight approximately 11 ½ x 15 ¾”. Matted approximately 15 ¾ x 19”. Mild wear, occasional light soiling to mat. Drawing is fine.
