    American citizen, the owner of this collection, Mr. Benzon, ran the house of Naylor, Benzon & Cie in London. He died two years before his library went on sale. Many of the books he purchased were from the Henry Bordes collection, who wrote catalogue entries for much of this sale (signified by his initials after the entry). The sale comprised 400 items, and against each, is the price achieved (in pencil)

    Une étiquette en papier indique que cet exemplaire était pour Mme Pavet, et qu'il devait recevoir un volume relié en demi cuir rouge et avec du papier Agathe. (ce qui est en effet cette copie). La majorité des catalogues étaient brochés, donc Monsieur Pavet devait être un client apprécié.
    Citoyen américain, le propriétaire de cette collection, M. Benzon, dirigeait la maison Naylor, Benzon & Cie à Londres. Il mourut deux ans avant la mise en vente de sa bibliothèque. La plupart des livres qu'il a achetés provenaient de la collection Henry Bordes, qui a rédigé des entrées de catalogue pour une grande partie de cette vente (signifiées par ses initiales après l'entrée). La vente comprenait 400 articles, et contre chacun, est le prix atteint (au crayon)
