Title Page of Arthur Conan Doyle's Article "Six Little Known Facts About Fairies" (March 1921) This title page marks the beginning of an intriguing article penned by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the renowned Scottish author, physician, and skeptic turned believer in the existence of fairies. Dated March 1921, this page is a historical snapshot from the era when the belief in fairies and other mythical creatures continued to captivate the public's imagination. Arthur Conan Doyle, best known for his detective stories featuring Sherlock Holmes, had long been a skeptic, dismissing fairy folklore as mere superstition. However, an encounter with the Cottingley Fairies photographs, taken by two young girls in England in 1917, changed his perspective. Convinced of their authenticity, Doyle wrote this article to discuss the evidence for the existence of fairies and challenge the skeptics of his time. The title "Six Little Known Facts About Fairies" hints at the intriguing content that follows. Doyle delves into the history of fairy folklore, sharing anecdotes, legends, and scientific theories that support the existence of these mystical beings. He also discusses the Cottingley photographs, providing a detailed analysis of the evidence and the reactions of experts in various fields. This title page serves as a reminder of a time when the belief in fairies was not merely a relic of the past but a topic of ongoing debate and fascination. It invites us to explore the rich history of fairy folklore and the role it continues to play in shaping our collective imagination.
