This episode from the life of Sherlock Holmes will be transmitted to our men and women overseas by shortwave and through the worldwide facilities of the Armed Forces Radio Service. Petri Wine brings you... Dazzle Rathbone and Nigel Bruce in the new adventures of Sherlock Holmes. The Petri family, the family that took time to bring you good wine, invites you to listen to Dr. Watson tell us another exciting adventure he shared with his old friend, that master detective, Sherlock Holmes. And if you don't mind, I'd like to suggest something that you might share with your friends. And that something is a glass of sherry before dinner. Naturally, a glass of Petri California sherry. I say Petri sherry because it's the perfect before dinner wine.
You couldn't think of a better way to begin a meal. That Petri Sherry has a beautiful, inviting color, like dark amber. And for flavor, well, you've heard Sherry described many times as having a rich, nut-like flavor. But if you want to learn for the first time what those words rich and nut-like really mean, you just taste Petri Sherry. It's wonderful. Serve Petri Sherry by itself or serve it with hors d'oeuvres or those little cocktail sandwiches. And incidentally, if you prefer your sherry dry, you know, not sweet, just ask your wine merchant for Petri Pale Dry Sherry. Well, the important thing to remember is if you want sherry, you want Petri Sherry, because that means good sherry.
And now let's look in on our genial friend and good host, Dr. Watson. Good evening, Doctor.
Good evening, Mr. Bartell. Punctual to the minute, as usual.
Never keep a doctor waiting, I always say. Particularly Dr. Watson. Draw up a chair, my boy. Thank you. That's it, that's it, that's it. All ready to tell us the Sherlock Holmes adventure of the speckled band, Doctor? Yes, I'm all ready, Mr. Bartell. Say, Doctor, just what does a speckled band mean?
You wait until I've told you the story, young fellow, my lad. You'll find out for yourself. Sorry. The floor is all yours, Doctor. The adventure of the speckled band began on a rainy April morning in 1883. An urgent call from one of my patients had kept me up most of the night before, and in consequence I came down to my breakfast, rather later than usual, to find that Holmes had already left our house some hours earlier. As I sat there reading the morning paper and consuming my two lightly boiled eggs, there was a knock at the door. It opened to disclose a typical example of the British working man, a bag of tools in one hand and a grimy cap in the other, that he spoke to me from the doorway.
You sent for me, Mr. Holmes? I'm not Mr. Holmes. Oh, I beg your pardon, Governor. But I've come down in the guest bracket over the mantelpiece.
Oh? What's wrong with it?
I've got a leak in it. Oh, a leak? Well, what's wrong with your work? Yes, sir. I hope I won't be disturbing you.
No, no, no. That's all right, my man. Don't mind me. Don't mind me.
Oh, dear. Very untidy man, Mr. Holmes, sir. What do you mean by that? Well, you can't help noticing the mess this room's in. I've heard say he was as tidy as anybody started. But he learned bad habits from a bloke what lived with him. Uh, Dr. Watson, I think he's nice.
You impertinent fellow. How dare you talk to me like that?
