Miss Fisher Snippets (298)

One of Phryne’s superpowers is safecracking. She calls it “a shady trick” taught by her father. As for why and how Henry Fisher acquired such skills, it is anyone’s guess. Anyhow, according to Wikipedia, the first known safe dates back to the 13th century BC found in the tomb of Pharaoh Ramesses II. Over the centuries, the material used and mechanism applied continues to evolve and improve, but there has yet a known uncrackable safe. It’s just a matter of how long it would take to breach the barrier.

Some of us may own a safe, but very few have the need to actually crack one. Still, it’s fascinating to watch a real-life professional lockpicker demonstrate techniques for cracking locks and safes – a session first presented at Miss Fisher Con in 2018 (Portland, Oregon) and an encore this year (July 22-24, 2026, Las Vegas). How you chose to apply the knowledge acquired is entirely up to you. Visit MissFisherCon.com for more details.

Many of you have asked if we are going to do a gift-with-donation like we did with last year’s mug. Well, ask no more, friends!

I present to you these gorgeous, one-of-a-kind Miss Fisher Con playing cards.

Happy birthday to Joel Jackson, who plays one of the grooviest detectives we know, James Steed.

And then there's me, in 2026, watching my beloved painting over and over again, only to realize years later that these amoureux are almost the same.
