It's not terribly clear just what this is other than very clever. The first part is a reprint of a cross between Sherlock Holmes and Lewis Carroll, a fannish musical composed and originally sung by Ruth Berman and Ron Whyte (first published in December 1957 in an edition of four copies). The second part is "The Case of the Minnesota Authors" by Robert Pattrick. The combined work was published in December 1960 by The McArdle Press.
