As soon as I read this posting, my mind's eye jumped to the very same big green volumes on my downstairs bookshelf!
Of all of the various Holmes editions I have seen, these are far and away the crown jewels!

As far as the books that I will never ever ever tire of, (besides Holmes), I usually reread the Lord Of The Rings once or twice a year, as well as all of David Edding's works, The Sackett series by Louis L'Amour & The Eyes Of The Dragon by Stephen King.
