The Illustrated Sherlock Holmes Treasury

Hello!
I just separated The Complete Sherlock Holmes Treasury from The Complete Sherlock Holmes and noticed that a suggested combination, The Illustrated Sherlock Holmes Treasury has substantial overlap with my book. (My edition also has the original illustrations.)
However, looking at the editions page it looks like several different omnibuses have been combined into the Illustrated Treasury, and I don't feel qualified to separate and recombine them properly, would anyone be able to tackle it? Thanks!

We generally don't separate a work because of illustrators / translators / editors. (I have multiple editions of "Alice's adventures in Wonderland" for instance - sure they're different, but they are still all the same "work" unless it's an adaptation).

>2 Nicole_VanK: I'm aware of that - I mentioned it because it was one of the reasons I suspected that the books were related, as the description of several of the editions sounds very similar to mine. I believe they are all facsimiles of the original Strand publications, but looking at the editions page it seems like several omnibuses have been mistakenly combined because they are all described as "illustrated".
