I might have come across a bit too snarky; I actually find those remaining old-school websites kind of charming and nostalgic when I come across them. Like this Basil Rathbone site I linked to in the ‘Iconic Images’ thread:

Basil Rathbone clearly had a lot to do with cementing the image of cap, cape and pipe in the popular imagination: [http://www.basilrathbone.net/gallery/sherlockholmes/index.htm](http://www.basilrathbone.net/gallery/sherlockholmes/index.htm) (P.S.: gotta love that circa 1994 website)

ETA: I clicked around some, and that Beatles site _ **is** _ a serious rabbit hole. Take **JKellyMap** ’s warning very seriously!
