James Bragington was not a professional actor - he was an auditor employed by the studio who was hired to play to part of Sherlock Holmes because he looked just like the A. Gilbert pictures of Holmes in the Strand Magazine.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle sold the rights of this story to Beeton's magazine and never made a penny out of the novel again; this is why he did not interfere when a second American movie of "A Study In Scarlet" was filmed. The magazine paid him £25 for the rights so they could print the story.
The first British outing for Sherlock Holmes.
