THREAD: In our opinion, you can never have too many copies of the Sherlock Holmes canon.

Here then, are some of our favorites from our collection, in the order of acquisition.
Because it was our first: the Longmeadow Press edition of The Works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, bound in leather. Published in 1984.

It contained everything in the public domain at the time (no Case-Book or His Last Bow).

Heading off to university, we discovered The Annotated Sherlock Holmes (2 vols) by William S. Baring-Gould. It opened up the full world of the original Sherlock Holmes stories to us.

The single-volume Doubleday edition of The Complete Sherlock Holmes, with Christopher Morley's "In Memoriam Sherlock Holmes" introduction.

Also while at university, we picked up a copy of the John Murray / Jonathan Cape omnibus edition of The Complete Sherlock Holmes Short Stories. It wasn't until many years later that we found the Lon Stories omnibus.

Then, in 1993 The Oxford University Press @OUPAcademic published The Oxford Sherlock Holmes, but unlike Baring-Gould's which contained Sherlockian annotations, this set included historical, societal and Victorian notes instead.

What? The Doubleday edition came in two volumes as well? Sign us up! This is how it originally appeared in 1930.

Vol. 1 contains STUD, SIGN, The Adventures and The Memoirs; Vol. 2 contains HOUN, The Return, VALL, His Last Bow, The Case-Book

Shortly after the Doubleday edition debuted, Garden City Publishing came out with their own single-volume edition of The Complete Sherlock Holmes in 1938, also including Morley's essay.

The complete audio dramatization of the Sherlock Holmes stories, overseen by @BertCoules and @BBCRadio4 is another highlight in our collection. There's nothing like the sounds of @clivemerrison and Michael Williams to bring the Canon alive!

The more recent @stephenfry audio production is a faithful and masterfully done reading of the complete Sherlock Holmes stories, unabridged.

The 3-volume set from The Heritage Press in 1950 and 1952 was edited by Edgar W. Smith (head of the Baker Street Irregulars).

The William Gillette cameo & 'VR' on the covers add to the panache.

We have three copies of this set, including one that belonged to Poul Anderson.

The game's afoot with the Folio Society! In 1993, they issued this set that graces our bookshelves. Divided in to 9 volumes together they comprise the profiles of Holmes (short stories) and Watson (novels)

Just last year we were able to add the John Murray / Jonathan Cape set of individual volumes to our collection:
And finally, the creme de la creme of our collection of complete Sherlock Holmes stories: the Limited Editions Club / Heritage Press set, of 8 volumes, in their original onion skin dust jackets and with the original accompanying paperwork.

We have others, but as we said at the top of the thread, these are our favorite editions of the complete Sherlock Holmes stories.

What's your favorite collection?
