Welcome to Watson's Tin Box--"A singular set of people..."

Watson’s Tin Box (Ellicott City, Maryland) is dedicated to reading and discussing the stories of Sherlock Holmes. Ours is a congenial group which invites and encourages members of all levels of knowledge and understanding of the stories, from the seasoned Sherlockian to the beginner, whom we all envy as they are discovering Holmes for the first time. The goal is to enjoy the stories and each other’s company!
Omnibus rebus impossibilibus remotis, quidquid relictum sit,
quamvis, debet esse veritas.
Translated by Paul Churchill, BSI, co-founder of Watson's Tin Box
Newcomers--Please Note! No one has said this better than Scott Monty, BSI, creator of I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere: "Sherlockians are sociable by nature. We want more people like us to join our societies. Even if you feel like you might not know as much as the most learned scholar, remember: we all had to start somewhere. And we like to educate and encourage each other...The more, the merrier." 

new gasogene!

As is our tradition, the Tin Box welcomed our new Gasogene at The Mycroft in January. We bid a fond farewell to the phenomenal leadership of Karen Wilson, ASH, and look forward to an incredible year led by Nea Dodson! Nea has some great plans for the year ahead--you don't want to miss a meeting in 2015!
