P.-V. Stock
P.-V. Stock is a French publishing company still existing today as "Éditions Stock". The company took the name of its director Pierre-Victor Stock (1861-1943) in 1877, but the company existed since 8 may 1708, founded by André Cailleau, and was known as "Au Temple du goût" (At the Temple of Taste). In the early 20th century, Stock ran into legal and financial difficulties. It was taken over in 1921 by Maurice Delamain and Jacques Chardonne, who renamed it "Éditions Stock, Delamain et Boutelleau". In 1961, Delamain and Chardonne sold Stock to Hachette, but still remained active as Éditions Stock.
The company published 12 books including 24 short stories and 7 novels written by Arthur Conan Doyle between 1908 and 1911.
The stories were translated by Albert Savine and some by Georges Michel.
