| - "The Adventure of the Retired Colourman" is one of the Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and collected into the book, The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes.
- Since it is placed at the end of most editions of The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes, "The Adventure of the Retired Colourman" is often incorrectly identified as the last Sherlock Holmes story to have been published during Doyle's lifetime. In fact, "The Adventure of Shoscombe Old Place", usually the penultimate story in editions of The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes, was originally published three months after "The Adventure of the Retired Colourman". "The Adventure of the Retired Colourman" has been adapted for radio and television.

The story's title character is a man named Josiah Amberley. After he has been to the police to report the disappearance of his wife, who appears to have taken a large amount of his money and run off with his friend Dr. Ray Ernest, Josiah Amberley is advised to contact the brilliant consulting detective Sherlock Holmes for further assistance. Holmes soon realizes that the case is not as simple as it appears to be at first. "The Adventure of the Retired Colourman" has been adapted for radio and television.
