  • This short reel opens with a clapperboard showing the title 'Sign of Four', a Sherlock Holmes feature by Maurice Elvey. The shots of a motor boat going under Thames bridges and a grand saloon driving through central London streets are probably production footage from the feature's climactic chase scene, taking in Trafalgar Square, Westminster Bridge and busy traffic in the Strand and Hyde Park.
    The Stoll film, The Sign of Four, was one of two feature length films in its Sherlock Holmes series (the other was The Hound of the Baskervilles). It was released in 1923 and starred Eillie Norwood as the great detective. The film's climax involves one long chase from a house in Twickenham all the way along the Thames to the docklands, with Holmes in a boat and the villains in a car. Presumably the scenes presented here were all 'no good' - spoiled shots that never made the final cut. Some look as if they have been taken in foggy conditions. Digitisation supported by the London Topographical Society.

    I used many Deep Learning algorithms to create the fully remastered version of this film. This whole process took me several weeks because of how slow the neural networks ran. Here were the tools I used in order to create this awesome version!
    ✔ Upscaled to 4K - with digital artifacts, but some parts are improved noticeably
    ✔ FPS boosted to 60 frames per second
    ✔ Colorized - please, be aware that colorization colors are not real and fake, colorization was made only for the ambiance and does not represent real historical data.
    ✔ Sharpened the video
    ✔ Scratches, noise, and imperfections removed
    ✔ Added realistic sounds for ambiance and mood

    Great stuff! Thank you! My family are all from around Paddington and worked on the Great Western Railway. Wonderful to see London as it was in my grandparents time.

    Fascinating. For some reason im very curious about the early 1900’s. When I was a child I didn’t give one crap. Im 30 now. I wish we could’ve lived through this beautiful era.

      War, developing healthcare, a lower life expectancy.

      You forgot that in that era a child had to work 18 hours minimum. London specifically
