Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press has been published monthly ink-on-paper by Peter E. Blau, with occasional illustrations and enclosures, for forty years. Much of the gossip is quite trivial, but most of it is Sherlockian or Doylean.

This file is a text-only compilation of his monthly issues since 1985.  This file can be used for easy searches (such as comics, plays, BSI members who have passed, and all other things Sherlockian).

For the sake of conserving the size of the file, images have been removed. To access the files with images included, go to http://www.sherlocktron.com/scuttle.htm, where you can access the files by year.
