Baker Street is charming, revisited.

ldhensonI finished off the bulk of my outstanding commissions this week and as I had a bit of a lull period while waiting for other people to get back to me about future ones, I had time to sneak in a few crafts for myself.
Since establishing shots of Baker Street are practically de rigueur for screen adaptations of Sherlock Holmes, I decided I wanted to turn some of the street signs into charms.
They required a bit of rejiggering via Photoshop since they all appear onscreen at an angle. The longest tile is less than 1.5" long, not counting the embedded loop.
Can you tell which adaptation each sign comes from?

Now I can wear whichever one suits me on the day :-)
ETA: One more pic, along with two older charms I haven't posted before.
(The round Baker St. charm is a "piece" of an 1890 map of London.)
I wouldn't wear them all at once--they'd be too heavy--but they do make a nice collection together like this and I can mix and match as I wish.
