Actually the 30th anniversary issue/anthology of F&SF in my case...though current editor/publisher Gordon Van Gelder has a similarly impressive 60th anniversary anthology out since 2009 from Tachyon Books...in a trade paper format that looks like a slightly larger version of the magazine.

And, my error Heavy Early this morning...the Best of YEAR'S BEST DETECTIVE STORIES is (and was corrected late this morning to) BOUCHER'S CHOICEST. My recent purchase of which in excellent shape for $7 seems to be a bargain compared to the online sources I checked.
