Original Illustrated Sherlock Holmes: 37 Short Stories Plus a Complete Novel Comprising the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the Memoirs of Sherlock Hol | Arthur Conan Doyle
13 posts | 14 read | 6 to read
Here are the original Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle as they first appeared in the famed British magazine "The Strand." This periodical was the literary sensation of its time, especially with the publication of the novel "The Hound of the Baskervilles" (which appears in its entirety in this volume), when eager readers lined up outside the magazine's London offices, waiting for each installment as it came off press.This edition contains 37 short stories, reproduced in complete facsimile (published in individual volumes as "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes," The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes," and "The Return of Sherlock Holmes"), plus the complete novel The Hound of the Baskervilles. Today, the collection of the original issues of "The Strand "containing the Holmes stories is a rare collector's piece. It is brought to you now, complete and unabridged, comprising a total of well over 600 pages, providing the undying excitement and fascination of each and every Sherlock Holmes Adventure. The drawings of Sidney Paget illustrate the stories--illustrations as immortal as the stories themselves. Paget produced more than 350 Sherlock Holmes illustrations, and it was his depictions which gave Holmes visual reality for everyone, which projected him throughout the world, and which today still provide the mold of the original hero in production on stage, screen and television.

Am I becoming a lush? Seems like lately My posts include alcohol. Hopefully I am posting just those days... peaceful on the porch, a breeze after a humid day. Enjoying my son reading Sherlock‘s 4th episode.

I feel better now - just checked & its mostly coffee posts- just 3 with alcohol in past month. My brother is an alcoholic so I stay aware but he has been dry 6 yrs now. 🙌🏻

Freespirit 😂😂sometimes a alcoholic beverage is medicinal!! 4y

I love flipping through my reprint of the original Sherlock Holmes illustrations! It makes me feel as if I‘m stepping back in time. #whodunit #oldcoolbooks

I finally caved & bought myself some #FunkoPop characters! For the longest time, we've only had two (Baby Groot & Black Widow). I've been trying to resist the temptation to buy more because I'm afraid I'll end up wanting more & more & more and I just don't have room...but I just couldn't resist these! ❤️

TrishB You‘re on the downward slippery slope now! 6y
ladym30 They look great!! So addictive!! 6y
TK-421 @TrishB @ladym30 So it begins! 6y
FlowerFairy Have been trying to get my hands on a John Watson Funko Pop for ages but no luck. 6y
TK-421 @FlowerFairy I'm going to be trying to find Watson as well, and Sherlock too. Best of luck to you! 6y

I'm really mentally struggling with the news and social media, so I decided to try to bury myself in my books. Forgive my sudden influx of posts as I try to post for as many of today's photo challenges as I can before shutting everything down for the night. I found this collection at my local used bookstore-original illustrations of my favorite detective and his drug #addiction. #anditsaugust

LazyLibrary I hear ya! Books are the best escape! 7y
Sarah83 Can you take some pictures of the illustrations? 7y
EllieDottie I love frostbeard candles!! 7y
DGRachel @EllieDottie Sherlock's Study is my favorite. It's the only one I've tried that's strong enough for my great room. 7y

Had to go with Sherlock for sleuth and give a pic of my short stories shelf. My physical collection may not show it, but I really do love short stories. #sleuth #octphotochallenge #scaretober #shelfie #sherlock

Shmemilina I love this edition; this is the edition that my mom has so it's the first Sherlock Holmes I ever read. I'm still very sentimental about it. ☺️ 7y
