A printed compilerís compliments slip tipped-in before the title-page reads ìThe Library of the late Prince Louis-Lucien Bonaparte is now for sale en bloc, the Prince desiring that it should remain intact. Intending purchasers may obtain orders to view by applying to Mr. Victor Collins. in whose hands the Prince Bonaparte has placed the disposal of the Libraryî. The corporation of the City of London had made an unsuccessful attempt to acquire the books for the Guildhall Library. They were subsequently sold to the Newberry Library in Chicago in 1901.
