About This Item

The Black Spot

A PIRATEMANIA 2011 dog tag attached to "The Black Spot"!

The only chance to assuage the curse of The Black Spot would be to pay homage to the venerable captain Pop Up Pirate and attend his event PIRATEMANIA.

Of course no such curse actually exists but get thee thar, it's a cracking weekend!

The black spot was a literary device invented by Robert Louis Stevenson for his novel Treasure Island which consisted of a circular piece of paper or card, with one side blackened while the other side bears a message and placed in the hand of the accused. It was a source of much fear because it meant the pirate was to be deposed as leader, by force if necessary--or else killed outright. The origins of Stevenson's Black Spot might be in the historical tradition of Caribbean pirates of showing an Ace of Spades to a person condemned as traitor or informer.
