I noticed there are a few box sets of Sherlock Holmes radio (I think) shows. I have a long commute and I thought it might be a good purchase. Is there any that are recomended or any suggestions to look out for?

Many of Doyle's books are in the public domain now and have been put to audio books on librivox.org.

Not really what you were asking for but it's good information for those interested.

Lol, Great Ceasars Ghost! I knew that a year ago, but forgot. Thank you, that is a great site. The CD's I have been looking at are dramatic with sound effects, and several actors.

If you haven't discovered Old Time Radio pod, It was my favorite when I was commuting.....I went 45 mins each way, and these have all the originals, and some made just for radio with Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce....Including the old Petri wine commercials....
There is also "The Shadow" and "The Saint"...You name it......

I have over 230 of the old time radio shows of Sherlock Holmes in mp3 format. With all of the actors and sound effects and all. I am somewhat of an old time radio fan, hence the screen name FibberMcGee.
