The Mammoth Book of New Comic Fantasy: Fourth All-New Collection, a reprint-anthology edited by Mike Ashley. Original appearances from 1872 to 2005 - in too many sources to list them all. (The only ones used more than once were 6 or 7 from Magazine of F&SF and 2 from Analog.) Most are from 1990 or later. Several stories are original to the Carroll & Graf (-UK) 2005 edition - I have marked them "[new]".
