Copyright © The Baker Street Irregulars™ JULIAN WOLFF’S HANDWRITTEN SEATING CHART The BSI Archives hold a table seating chart handwritten by Julian Wolff, who was Commissionaire of the BSI and managed preparations for the Dinner. This chart might not reflect the final seating arrangements, and it’s possible that additional people came to the Dinner or that some on the chart were unable to attend it. The Seating Chart was used as a guide when creating the photo key, but other sources were also consulted to confirm identities.
