We know her as a Sherlockian, co-author of <i>Printer's Error</i>, co-founder of the Honey & Wax Book Collecting Prize, and co-founder of Type Punch Matrix. And yes, even as a collector herself.</p><p>Our conversation with Rebecca was wide-ranging, during which she gave her prediction about future definitive lists of collectibles, defined who collectors are and how young people can begin their collecting journey, and astutely observed that a collection is "an autobiography in the form of a treasure hunt."</p><p>And of course, we have another <b>Canonical Couplet</b> to challenge your acuity. If you are chosen as a winner, you'll get a collectible or two from the IHOSE vaults. Answers are due by October 29, 2021 at 11:59 a.m. EDT.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgItVSOueCQgBYvSND_n3c2-zKR1aTwX3HI-oHB1-HyRetCkS2sgTOue4aaJHDCWoQLEfWDQuBx6-1oJmrHURSlFw135OERE03mJtepyPjdv1Em3UpWqUfUTtfPZE08anpJvQXV89JamrxK/s1845/Screenshot+2021-10-12+141730.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="811" data-original-width="1845" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgItVSOueCQgBYvSND_n3c2-zKR1aTwX3HI-oHB1-HyRetCkS2sgTOue4aaJHDCWoQLEfWDQuBx6-1oJmrHURSlFw135OERE03mJtepyPjdv1Em3UpWqUfUTtfPZE08anpJvQXV89JamrxK/w640-h282/Screenshot+2021-10-12+141730.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>Information on sponsors, links, and notes are available below.</p><div style="text-align: center;"><a data-patreon-widget-type="become-patron-button" href="https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=2318606">Become a Patron!</a></div><script async="" src="https://c6.patreon.com/becomePatronButton.bundle.js"></script><p></p><div><div><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin: 0px;">Please do consider becoming a <a href="https://ihose.co/ihosepatron" target="_blank">Patron of the Arts</a>.

Even Inspector Stanley Hopkins, no stranger to Holmes and his methods, said this about him:</div><div><blockquote><div>“I believe that you are a wizard, Mr. Holmes. I really do sometimes think that you have powers that are not human.” [ABBE]</div></blockquote></div><div>When Holmes took the effort to explain his reasoning—to a client like Jabez Wilson in "The Red-Headed League," for example—the magic vanished and it approached common sense:</div><div><br /></div><div><blockquote><div>“I thought at first that you had done something clever, but I see that there was nothing in it, after all.”</div></blockquote></div><div><br /></div><div>When it comes to terminology, however, it is interesting to note that Sherlock Holmes himself never refers to his own methods as simply "common sense."</div><div><br /></div><div>Indeed, as we look across the Canon, the term "common sense" is applied—almost universally—as a pejorative when pointing out the official police and their methods.</div><div><br /></div><div>In <i>The Sign of Four</i>, Athleney Jones self-identifies with that thread of thought: </div><div><blockquote><div>“Well, well, if it was fastened the steps could have nothing to do with the matter. That’s common sense. Man might have died in a fit; but then the jewels are missing. Ha! I have a theory. These flashes come upon me at times...Let us apply common sense to the matter.”</div></blockquote></div><div>Ironically, it was Jones who called the master "Mr. Sherlock Holmes the theorist" just a few moments before that statement.</div><div><br /></div><div>Sergeant Wilson of the Sussex Constabulary is with Mrs. Douglas and Cecil Barker at the scene of the crime in <i>The Valley of Fear</i>, his "slow, bucolic common sense was still pondering the open window."</div><div><br /></div><div>Later, Inspector MacDonald can't seem to wrap his head around the facts:</div><div><blockquote><div>“Oh, man, it’s just inconceivable! It’s clean against common sense! I put it to you, Mr. Holmes, judging it by what we have heard.”</div></blockquote></div><div>To the unnamed inspector in "The Three Gables," Sherlock Holmes remarked, "What rugged common sense!"</div><div><br /></div><div>Holmes valued common sense in his own realm, but was hailed for his analytical reasoning. By putting his professional competition on the plane of common sense, he was able to devalue it and make them seem less capable (not that they needed help) by calling them out for their pedestrian thinking.</div><div><br /></div><div>Meanwhile, at Baker Street Elementary, we find the non-sensical accompanying the common sensical...</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
