Conan Doyle, Sir Arthur: Illustrated Sherlock Holmes. v1, 4 Jan 2009
In this thread I'll upload, as I create them, fully illustrated versions of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Due to the size of illustrated books, I'll split it into the original books, rather than creating an "omnibus" edition, as I've done with the non-illustrated stories.
For the short stories, the illustrations are the original Sidney Paget illustrations, as published in the Strand Magazine for the original publication of the stories. These wonderful illustrations are "iconic" and form everyone's idea of what Sherlock Holmes "should" look like, as well as providing a superb illustration of Victorian life and dress, which is now lost to us. This project will take me a while to complete, so please be patient! The books are:

Thank you for this! It's great and the illustrations look awesome.
I'm just going to mention that in the table of contents on page 2, it says "The Map with the Twisted Lip" instead of "The Man with the Twisted Lip." |
