I'm looking for suggestions for the next anthology of Sherlock Holmes Pastiches to read (preferably of the traditional variety, not of the Sherlock Holmes in Space fighting cthulhu variety ;-)

Last few months I've read these:

The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes edited by Richard Lancelyn Green
Holmes for the Holidays edited by Martin H. Greenberg
Murder in Baker Street edited by Martin H. Greenberg
The New Sherlock Holmes Adventures edited by Mike Ashley (aka The Mammoth Book of New Sherlock Holmes Adventures)
The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes edited by Martin H. Greenberg
The Game is Afoot edited by Marvin Kaye
The Exploits of Sherlock Holmes By Adrian Conan Doyle and John Dickson Carr

I'm saving More Holmes for the Holidays, well, until the Holidays :-)

i have to recommend 'The Exploits of Sherlock Holmes' (1952), by Adrian Conan Doyle and John Dickson Carr.
here you will find the records of some of the many cases Watson originally decided not to publish.
about as trditional as you will find, imo.

I'm quite fond of The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. It contains a wonderful story called "The Doctor's Case" by Stephen King, where Watson has to take charge because of Holmes' debilitating allergy to a cat at the scene. It's not just a clever story because of that twist, the detection is interesting, and there's some nice characterization. Some of the stories are, well, different, but I would pay just for King's story alone.

Yes the Stephen King Story was pretty good.
