Howards Half Of Der Hund

27/5/2013

Joining us today in the "Howard Ostrom Holmes and Watson Autograph Collection" is Fritz Odemar. One half of the detective/doctor duo for the 1937 German Film "Der Hund Von Baskerville". Odemar who played Watson was a prolific actor of his time appearing in over 150 films through the course of his career.

I am sure it wont take you dedicated Holmesians a second to decode the title of the film for it is of course an adaption of the well known "Hound Of The Baskervilles" tale .

At this moment in time we are still seeking Bruno Guttners (Holmes) autograph to go alongside Fritz so as always if anyone has any information/owns one and interested in discussing a trade or sale please contact myself or Howard.

Today we have a new entry in the stage section of "The Howard Ostrom Collection Holmes and Watson Autograph Collection" with Martin Thompson who played Holmes in the stage production "Sherlock Holmes And The Final Adventure" in 2009.

Thompson was very proud to be included into the collection as you can see from the letter he wrote to Howard (click to zoom)

Thompsons Watson was played by Charles Horton in the production who we are currently attempting to get the autograph for.

And remember for more Holmes and Watsons of the stage,screen and sound-waves be sure to check out the rest of the "The Howard Ostrom Collection".

Running an appeal to Holmes fan around the world to see if anyone can help Howard and myself out with locating the autographs for the following International Holmes actors. Western European and Eastern Holmes and Watsons are very hard to get hold of in comparison to English speaking origin duo's , this is largely due to a minefield of lost in translation letters and the difficulty's finding the correct address or agent to write to in the first place anyway.

But given the international fanbase NPLH has we are hopeful that maybe someone might have a clue as to contacting the actors or representatives of the following or indeed maybe even hold autographs themselves they might be willing to discuss a trade or sale for.

1.) Algimantas Masiulis and Ernt Romanv - Holmes and Watson in the 1979 Russian Tv Movie adaption of the Blue Carbuncle "Goluboy Karbunkl"

2.) Igor Petrenko & Andrey Panin - Holmes and Watson in an upcoming Russian television series based on ACD's Canon due out in Autumn 2013 . The series will consist of eight stories of two episodes each spread over two series including some NEVER before adapted stories. Tragically Andrey Panin passed away in March of this year so we know his autograph might be harder to locate but we are very keen to honor him alongside Petrenko and immortalize him within The Ostrom Collection.

3) Shozo Uesugi & Ryoichi Yamaguchi in "Sherlocks Last Case" a 1988 Stage show in Japan.

Any one with any information can contact either myself or Howard Ostrom.
