Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not bad, but...
Review: This set is basically a collection of Sherlock Holmes films that are in the public domain. The visual quality is somewhat faded on several of the films and the sound is adequate at best. However, even with these liabilities, the films are viewable. Included in the set is the following:

4 films with Basil Rathbone:
- Terror by Night
- Woman in Green
- The Secret Weapon
- Dressed to Kill

3 films with Arthur Wontner:
- Triumph of Sherlock Holmes
- Murder at the Baskervilles
- Sign of Four

The other films are:
- Sherlock Holmes and the Deadly Necklace (Christopher Lee)
- A Study in Scarlet (Reginald Owen)
- The Speckled Band (Raymond Massey)

There are also five episodes from the 1950s Sherlock Holmes TV show with Ronald Howard as a bonus feature. Aside from the popular Basil Rathbone movies, what makes this set interesting is the inclusion of other lesser known films that have just recently been made available.
