Swinging Evidence

To you, working the case,

Welcome to the Storm Post Office. London, 1966: a purple-gray envelope, its psychedelic lettering twisting as if it were dancing; cream newspaper cuttings and geometric pop-art eyes stare at one another; orange guitar-string lines run across the picture, an angular museum floor plan lies underneath, and a teal evidence tab is pasted in the corner.

A famous detective once gave very useful advice about cases: “It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data.” — Arthur Conan Doyle, A Scandal in Bohemia (1891)

So let us not rush to conclusions. Lay the clues out one by one: a hall, a missing golden cup, a few newspaper columns, the buzz of a guitar. We are in no hurry either. Write and tell us what you saw.

Evidence sealed, music still playing
